Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon matcha powder
- 0.5 cup white chocolate chips
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cooking instructions
- Heat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. (about 5 min) — 350°F
- Beat the softened butter and sugar in a large bowl until creamy and slightly lighter, about 2 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla until smooth. (about 3 min)
- Whisk the flour, matcha powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and stir just until no dry flour remains. Fold in the white chocolate chips. (about 3 min)
- Scoop the dough into 18 portions, about 1 1/2 tablespoons each, and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake one sheet at a time until the edges are set and the centers look slightly soft, 10 to 12 minutes. (about 12 min) — 350°F
- Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. (about 5 min)
