Delicious Soft Matcha Sugar Cookies

These matcha sugar cookies are soft and chewy, with a subtle sweetness and a hint of earthy matcha flavor. The recipe takes about 30 minutes from start to finish and yields approximately 24 cookies.

Ingredients

• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons matcha powder (ChipCooks matcha)
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and matcha powder until well combined.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
4. Add Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
6. Scoop Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they will firm up as they cool.
8. Cool and Dust: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. If desired, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
