Ingredients:  
For the cookies:
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter at room temperature
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup granulated sugar, plus additional for sugaring tops
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract or the seeds of 1 vanilla bean
1 bag chai-tea leaves
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt

For the glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
3 tablespoons milk or eggnog
Directions:
Directions:
Using a stand mixer or an electric mixer, beat the butter on medium speed for about a minute until it's light and fluffy.
Add the oil, and mix again on medium speed until at least mostly incorporated. It's OK if the butter and oil don't fully combine.
Add the granulated sugar, powdered sugar, egg, and vanilla, and mix again.
Add one bag of chai-tea leaves to the bowl and mix.
Add the flour, baking soda, and salt, and mix on low until fully combined.
The dough will be very soft, so chill for at least an hour before baking.
When you're ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F. Shape the cookies into balls of dough that are 1-2 tablespoons large and sprinkle sugar on top of them. Bake for 8-12 minutes, depending on the size. For softer cookies, remove from the oven before the edges start to brown.
Let the cookies cool, then combine the ingredients for the glaze and top with glaze and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
