Just the perfect butter cookie texture with the delicious aroma and flavor of the basil. For everybody who had an over flow of fresh basil last summer and made my recipe for BASIL SUGAR, this is the recipe I told you so much about.
Gluten-Free Basil Tea Cookies

- 1/2 cup of soft butter
- 1/3 cup of basil sugar

Instructions
- Pre-heat your oven at 350F, line a silpat or a parchment paper on a baking sheet. Reserve
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the soft butter with the basil sugar till you get a soft creamy paste. Whisk the eggs inside. Reserve.
