You will need:
285g of butter
200g of brown sugar
Six or seven tablespoons of your favourite instant iced tea
One egg yolk
Two teaspoons of vanilla extract
290g of all all-purpose flour
(For the glaze)
125g of icing sugar
Five teaspoons of hot water or milk
1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Directions
Firstly, preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celcius. Beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer. Combine until it becomes light and fluffy. Then beat in your iced tea, egg yolk and vanilla extract. Gradually sift the flour into the bowl and stir. Drop by heaping teaspoon two inches apart onto baking trays.
Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden/brown. To make the glaze, combine all the ingredients and leave to sit a while to allow it to thicken before decorating the cookies.
Why not push the boat out and add a little Gookie Dough to the mix to add extra sweetness? Serve with a delicious glass of iced tea with ice cubes and lemon. Sit in the sun, relax and enjoy! *Recipe credit with thanks to Annelise Friedman via Just A Pinch Recipe Club*
