These cookies are flavoured with Earl Grey tea and vanilla and take their name from a popular tea latte. In my hometown, a London Fog is made with Earl Grey tea, a shot of vanilla syrup, and some frothy steamed milk. In the cookies, you lose none of the subtle floral Earl Grey flavour, which pairs perfectly with the double shot of vanilla. Pulse together until a dough is formed. Pulse together all the dry ingredients in a food processor until the tea leaves are pulverized.
