Default chai cookies

I ran across this recipe in some food forum and tried it at home. I think it's yummy 8) \r\n\r\n3 egg whites\r\n1 c. granulated sugar\r\n1/2 teaspoon cardamom\r\n1/4 teaspoon cinnamon\r\n1/4 teaspoon ground cloves\r\n\r\nBeat the egg whites with an electric mixer at low until they get foamy, then at high speed until they form stiff peaks. You should be able to turn the bowl sideways without the egg whites moving. Your bowl and beaters must be grease-free for this to work properly! Gradually add sugar a little at a time while beating at high speed. When all the sugar has been beaten in, the egg whites will look shiny. Add the spices and beat in as briefly as possible. Drop the mixture into small mounds on baking sheets that have been covered with foil or parchment paper. Bake at 250 degree Farenheit for 90 minutes. Turn off the oven and leave the meringues to sit. Don't open the door! Let them sit overnight (preferable) or at least until the oven cools. Remove them from the foil and store in an airtight container.

Default Chai Butter Cookies

Another chai cookies recipe:\r\n\r\n\r\nChai Butter Cookies\r\n\r\nINGREDIENTS:\r\n1 cup unsalted butter\r\n1 cup Instant Chai Tea Mix\r\n1 1/3 cups white sugar\r\n2 eggs\r\n3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour\r\n1 tablespoon baking powder\r\n2 teaspoons salt\r\n1/2 cup white sugar for decoration\r\n\r\nDIRECTIONS:\r\nIn a large bowl, cream together the butter, 1 1/3 cups sugar, and chai tea mix until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt; blend into the creamed mixture until all of the dry has been absorbed. Cover the dough, and refrigerate for 1 hour.\r\nPreheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Roll the cookie dough into walnut sized balls, and roll the balls in sugar. Place the cookies onto greased cookie sheets about 3 inches apart, and flatten slightly using the tines of a fork.\r\nBake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, just until the edges begin to brown. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.
