How to Make Matcha Green Tea Vanilla Cookies Recipe
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup matcha powder, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 large egg yolks one at a time.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or up to 24 hours).
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to 1/4 inch thickness.
- Use a 2-inch cookie cutter to cut out cookies. Place them 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Immediately sprinkle granulated sugar over the warm cookies.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
