Matcha White Chocolate Cookies

Prep Time: 10 mins
Cooking Time: 8-10 mins
Servings: 16-20

Ingredients
1/2 Cup (112g) butter at room temperature
3/4 cup (150g) Sugar, I used half white and half brown sugar
2 1/2 Tablespoons of Yumini Matcha Green Tea Powder, sifted
1 egg at room temperature
1/2 Teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/3 cup (190g) plain flour
1/2 Teaspoon baking soda
1/4 Teaspoon salt
1/2 Cup chopped white chocolate

Method
Preheat oven to 175°C and line baking tray with baking paper.

In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and both types of sugar. Add egg and vanilla and mix to combine, mix in sifted matcha tea powder.
Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a bowl. Add it to the butter-sugar mixture and beat on low speed until flour is incorporated. Scrape mixing bowl to ensure flour is evenly distributed in the dough. Stir in chopped white chocolate.
Scoop tablespoons of dough and place on baking trays, leaving space in between for cookies to expand.
Bake cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until they are no longer shiny on top. Allow cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the baking tray then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store cooled cookies tightly covered at room temperature for up to one week or for up to three months in the freezer.
