  • Total Time: 27-30 minutes
  • Yield: 24 cookies

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (120g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup (60g) powdered sugar
  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons matcha green tea powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cream the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Mix in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Gradually add the flour and matcha powder, mixing until a dough forms.
  4. Shape the dough into small balls or logs, then flatten slightly with your palm or the bottom of a glass.
  5. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
  7. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For an extra touch, drizzle melted white chocolate or sprinkle crushed pistachios on top after baking.
  • Chilling the dough for 30 minutes before shaping can help prevent spreading.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week or freeze for longer storage.
