Matcha White Chocolate Chip Cookies

Servings: 12-15 cookies

Ingredients:

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup white granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp matcha powder (preferably ceremonial grade)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips

Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3: Cream Butter and Sugars

In a large bowl using an electric mixer, beat the butter until it is light and fluffy. Add white granulated sugar gradually and continue beating until well combined.

Step 4: Add Matcha and Egg

Add matcha powder to the butter mixture and mix until just combined. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.

Step 5: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.

Step 6: Fold In White Chocolate Chips

Fold in white chocolate chips into the cookie dough.

Step 7: Scoop and Bake

Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown.

Tips:

For an extra green tea kick, sprinkle a pinch of matcha powder on top of each cookie before baking.
