1 Earl Grey tea bag
Chocolate Icebox Pinwheels

Baking instructions for Lemon Icebox Rounds
1. Prepare the dough recipe, stirring in the lemon zest when adding the egg yolks. Shape the dough into logs that are an inch across and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill until firm, about 2 hours.
2. Preheat the oven to 325 F and line 2 baking trays with parchment paper.
3. Pour the turbinado sugar onto a plate. Unwrap the cookie logs and roll them in the sugar to coat. Slice the cookies about ¼-inch thick and place on the baking trays, leaving a ½-inch between them. Bake the cookies for about 15 minutes, until lightly browned on the bottoms. Cool the cookies on the tray and then store in an airtight container.

Baking instructions for Chocolate Icebox Pinwheels
1. Prepare the dough recipe, then remove half of the dough to a separate bowl. Stir the cocoa powder into that separate bowl of dough until incorporates. Shape each piece of dough into a disc and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill until firm, about 2 hours.
2. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out each piece of dough to a square about 8-inches across and just under a ¼-inch thick. Place the chocolate dough over the plain dough, trim the edges and carefully roll up, creating a spiral effect. Wrap the cookie log and chill until form again, about an hour.

0:00 Intro
0:35 Browning the butter
1:47 Mixing in the wet ingredients
3:39 Mixing in the dry ingredients
4:53 Adding the chocolate chips
5:44 Forming the logs
7:55 Slicing the cookies to bake
10:31 Tasting the cookies
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup brown butter, cooled
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup miniature semi-sweet chocolate chips
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Allow to bubble and foam. After about 5 minutes, the foaming will lessen and the bottom of the skillet will show brown solids with the butter smelling nutty and looking golden. Scrape into a bowl and cool.
- Combine the cooled brown butter and sugars until evenly mixed, 3 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and mix to combine. Scrape sides of the bowl to ensure even mixing. Add flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix just to combine. Add rolled oats and chocolate chips. Mix to incorporate and finish by hand to ensure it is well mixed.
- Divide dough in half and shape each half into a log. Use parchment paper or plastic wrap to compact the dough. Do not worry about over compacting. Once in tight uniform logs, twist the ends and place in the refrigerator or airtight container until firm, 2 hours.
- When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F. Slice prepared cookies into ¼-inch thick and place on parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with Malden sea salt. Bake until the edges are set and the centers are just soft, 10-12 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on pan for 5 minutes. Finish cooling on a wire rack.

Instructions
00:00 Introduction
Roll sprinkles into some, mini chocolate chips into others, others plain. Nuts?
00:21 Cream together butter sugar egg and vanilla. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a spatula to make sure all ingredients are well-combined.
01:08 Dry ingredients whisk together separately then add to the butter mixture with mixer on low-speed.
01:42 If stirring in any add-ins, mix them in here.
02:03 Divide dough into two halves and lightly flour your hands. Form each half into a log about 1 1/2 - 2” in diameter. To roll in sprinkles (as seen in the photos, pour several tablespoons of non pareils into a pie plate and roll the dough through the sprinkles until the outside is completely covered.
02:46 Wrap dough logs in plastic wrap and refrigerate. To prevent the dough from getting a severely flat edge I like to place it on a plush folded hand towel while it chills. Chill dough for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight and up to one week.
03:31 When you are ready to bake, preheat oven to 350F (175C). Remove dough from the refrigerator and slice into ¼” slices.
04:05 Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing cookies at least 2 inches apart.
04:18 Bake on 350F for 10-12 minutes or until edges are just beginning to turn a light golden brown.
Enjoy!
