Here at TeaVendor we know a thing or two about Chai. Today we’re putting Taylor Swift’s Chai Cookies to the ultimate test, will our resident Swiftie give the cookies the automatic pass? Check out today’s video and sound off in the comments on your Taylor Swift thoughts!
The recipe you see in today’s video is made true to the original recipe for the most part, the only change Siobhán made was to use loose leaf chai compared to tea bag chai. Check out the recipe below and let us know if we should revisit the recipe using Siobhán suggested changes!
