Matcha Cookie Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon matcha powder (culinary grade)
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup unsalted butter
• ½ cup packed brown sugar
• ¼ cup granulated sugar
• 1 egg (room temperature)
• ½ teaspoon vanilla
• ⅓ cup white chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Steps

1. 1

   In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, matcha powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

2. 2

   In a separate medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Add the sugars and stir to combine. Add the egg and vanilla and continue whisking together for about a minute until well combined.

3. 3

   Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding together until just combined. The dough will be very soft. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

4. 4

   Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper then set aside. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

5. 5

   With a medium spring-loaded cookie scoop, scoop a rounded ball of cookie dough and place it on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each.

6. 6

   Bake for 12-14 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.

7. 7

   Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

8. 8

   Place white chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the bowl for 30 seconds, stirring in between each interval, until the chips are just melted.

9. 9

   Use a fork to drizzle the melted chocolate over the cookies and allow to set completely.
