A NEW CHAI T'GIVING TRADITION and RANDI K

While enjoying some blog hopping today, I ran across this…
I had recently begun pondering my ‘food lineup’ for the big day next Thursday

I believe this will make it onto the menu.   If the flavors come together, like I believe they will, it may end up being on my table every Turkey day...my friend, you know her with the initials BS&K…loves to bake bread and she LOVES chai tea, so this will float her boat also.)

Here’s the recipe…
Chai Tea Bread - from The Jey of Cooking
For the bread:

* 1/2 cup butter
* 3/4 cup sugar
* 2 eggs
* 1 Tbsp. vanilla
* 1/2 cup prepared black tea, cooled
* 1/3 cup milk
* 1/4 tsp. cardamom
* 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
* 1/8 tsp. cloves
* 3/4 tsp. nutmeg
* 2 tsp. baking powder
* 1/2 tsp. salt
* 2 cups flour

For the glaze:

* 1 cup powdered sugar
* 1/4 tsp. vanilla
* 3-6 tsp. prepared black tea, cooled
* additional cinnamon
