These cookies get quite hard and crunchy and are absolutely perfect for dipping in coffee or in your chai tea. Very popular in my household. I made the recipe as is.

A big cookie hit in my house! I used an instant Chai Tea mix from my pantry. It gave it a wonderful buttery Chai flavor, very similar to gingersnaps, but chewy, not crispy. Love 'em! My son, a culinary student, said "These cookies are addicting!" Thanks to the review warning from Nanpie, I was prepared for my hand mixer to be overworked. My poor mixer motor started to smell like it was burning. I added a couple of tablespoons of cold water intermittently to the batter as I folded in the dry mix. Be careful not to add too much. This recipe actually yielded 5-1/2 dozen nice sized cookies.

I purchased chai latte mix as did some of the other reviewers. Cookies have subtle gingersnap flavor and light crunch. Will go very nicely with tea or coffee. Baking for 9 minutes was perfect. Note-dough was pretty stiff. My poor ol' hand mixer about gave out!

These cookies taste amazing!! I used General Foods Chai Latte mix rather than making my own -- still wonderful!! It made more than the recipe said but they will disappear in no time.

Delicious! I used a chai latte mix (Chamba Chai) and wasn't certain if the non-latte mix indicated was sweetened. Because of this I used only 1/3 Cup sugar. Next time I'll try using a little more sugar and a little less baking powder, which I could taste a bit in the baked cookie. Despite that...the texture was wonderful, a cross between peanut butter and shortbread cookies. I only baked them for 8-9 minutes.

Wow! This has become one of my favorite quick and easy cookie recipes. I did end up cooking them at 375 for 8 minutes as my first batch burned after 7 minutes at 400 but apparently I'm not very good at judging "walnut" size as I halved the recipe and still ended up with 36 ginger snap size cookies! They taste so much more complicated than they are, I took some over to my mom's and she loved them also, thank you for sharing!

I made this recipe tonight. I used David Rio Giraffe Decaf powdered chai mix. These were great! Next time I might try a stronger chai to make them even spicier.

I love these cookies!! My biggest addiction is Chai Tea, and I am so glad you made this recipe. My husband also loves these. I tried making them with Oregon Chai Tea mix. They were great, although if anyone tries this you will have to buy two boxes.

Very tasting! Good recipe if your looking for something a little unique. They did come out a bit too satly, next time I would only add 1 teaspoon of salt.

Great cookie for the chai enthusiast who likes crunchy to slightly chewy. Wonderful buttery chai flavor. Great for dipping in milk or vanilla soy milk!

This recipe was INCREDIBLE! My best friend loves chai so i made the homemade chai and these cookies for christmas. She loved them, as did I! They resemble a gingersnap but are not as crisp, and they have a very original flavor to them that is just like chai! The only thing i changed was not squashing the cookies with fork tongs as they looked prettier spreading out themselves, and i baked them 15 minutes. You MUST try these cookies and the chai tea mix in this recipe!

This cookie came out tasting a bit bland. It was spongy and did not mix well, I feel like it was lacking some ingredients.
