I developed a craving today for Russian Tea Cookies, but I did not have any powdered confectioner's sugar. So I went ahead and made some with granulated sugar. They're not bad. I'll have some this evening while watching a recorded Agatha Christie's Poirot episode.

John, is this a form of shortbread? (One of my favorites.)

Yes, it pretty much is.

John, they look like they would go nicely with tea.

Yes, I think they would. But I am a philistine: I had them with hot chocolate.

You can make powdered sugar by putting regular sugar in a blender.

I love getting tea cakes (and whatever else they're serving) at the Russian Tea House in St. Paul.

Just arrived in the grocery sack, some powdered sugar


and you know what that means...
Russian tea cookies!
