Portion out your dough into 8 large balls. Roll the cookie dough balls in the chai spice mixture before placing them on the baking sheet with room to spread. 4 per pan works best. Bake cookies for about 8-15 minutes. Depending on cookie size, Cool cookies completely before glazing. Usually, an hour is best so the centers have time to set.
