For a stronger tea flavor, use a mortar and pestle to grind the Earl Grey tea leaves into a finer powder. Ensure the butter is only melted halfway to prevent the cookies from spreading too thin during baking. These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

StepPreheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. (5 minutes)
