My Furrever Friends Cat Café sweet romance series is set around a cat café. (Cat cafés are crosses between coffee shops and pet adoption centers. Learn more about cat cafés here.)Since the series involves a café, I mention delectable baked goods and include a recipe at the end of each book. Here's one from the free novella, Lions and Love at the Cat Café.

Chai Tea Shortbread CookiesIf using loose-leaf tea, grind the tea into a rough powder first. If using tea bags, cut open the tea bags (4-6) and measure. Tea bags usually have a more powdered mix, so you don't have to grind it. Mix the ingredients in a food processor for ease. You can also press the dough into a shortbread pan and bake for about 30 minutes
2 cups all-purpose flour2/3 cup sugar 2 tablespoons chai tea (ground fine)1/2 teaspoon salt1 cup (2 sticks) butter, room temperature2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Blend the flour, sugar, chai, and salt.
Mix in the butter and vanilla. Press the mixture into a ball of dough.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/3-inch thick. Use a cookie cutter and place cookies 2 inches apart on baking sheets lined with parchment paper or silicone baking sheets. Bake until the edges are golden, 8-12 minutes depending on size. Let cool on sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks and cool to room temperature.
