Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and crushed Earl Grey tea leaves.
  3. In another bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract and culinary lavender.
  5. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined; add milk if needed for consistency.
  6. Using a cookie scoop, portion out rounded dough balls onto the baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Sprinkle extra sugar and lavender on top of the dough balls if desired.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes until edges are golden and centers are soft.
  9. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
