2. Taylor Swift's Chai Sugar Cookies

Taylor Swift’s chai sugar cookie recipe has quickly become a staple of holiday baking. Its sweet and cinnamony flavor has warmed the hearts of many, fans and bakers alike. And who can forget about the eggnog glaze that coats the top? You could say these cookies have a good "reputation". This recipe makes about 24 cookies -- just enough for you and a friend to gorge on, if you can find the strength to share. This plate of cookies is bound to be gone by the end of the night!

1. In a large bowl, beat ½ cup of unsalted room temperature butter using a mixer until fluffy.

2. To the same bowl, gradually beat in at medium speed ½ cup of vegetable oil, ½ cup of granulated sugar, ½ cup of powdered sugar, 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, and 1 large egg one at a time until combined.

3. Cut open a chai tea packet and add it to the mixture.

4. Set the mixer on low speed and stir in 2 cups of all-purpose flour, ¾ teaspoon of baking soda, and ½ teaspoon of salt until combined.

5. Refrigerate the dough for 1 hour.

6. When the time is up, separate the dough into 1 tablespoon-sized chunks and flatten them with your palm until they are ¼ inch thick.

7. Place the cookies onto a greased baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes.

8. Taylor says the eggnog frosting is optional, but we definitely recommend trying it! To begin, combine 1 cup of powdered sugar with ¼ teaspoon of ground nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 3 tablespoons of eggnog.

9. When mixed, it should resemble a glaze. Add one spoonful to the top of each cookie.

10. As a finishing touch, Taylor recommends sprinkling some cinnamon over the cookies.
