Dried Fruit and Nut Cookies with Masala Chai

Dried Fruit and Nut Cookies with Masala Chai (Spiced Tea)

Not a fan of the Plum Cake so made its cousin, Dried Fruit and Nut Cookies. Served with mulled tea, to warm up the insides on a cold Boxing Day afternoon (yes, this post is two days too late).

My take on Dried Fruit and Nut Cookies:

1. omitted the egg and they did just fine.

2. season appropriate substitutions: dried sweetened cranberries for candied cherries (i couldn't find them) and dark rum for dry sherry.

My take on Chai.

1. up the sugar to 3 tablespoons, that's when the tea is begining to be sweet.
