when i make a batch of Tartine's sweet tart dough

the recipe makes enough dough for 3 extra tarts

sometimes i use the dough to make

little shortbread cookies instead,

adding other ingredients to liven them up a bit

here i ground up a mixture of

fresh thyme, lavender, cardamom, and fennel seeds

using a mortar and pestle

(about 2-3 tablespoons total)

i used the rolling pin to press

the herbs & spices into the rolled-out dough

after the cookies came out of the oven

i topped them with an easy lemon glaze:

1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

3 tablespoons lemon juice

zest of 1 lemon, finely chopped

(combine ingredients in bowl and stir until smooth)
