Ingredients
Here is the list of ingredients to make your matcha and white chocolate cookies a success :
- 220g of flour
- 120g softened butter
- 100g of sugar
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons of Blossom Matcha tea
- 150g white chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1 pinch of salt
Steps for preparing matcha and white chocolate cookies
Step 1: Preparing the dough
Start by mixing the softened butter and sugar until creamy. Then add the egg and mix well to form a smooth paste.
Step 2: Incorporate the dry ingredients
In another bowl, sift the flour with the matcha tea, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Gradually incorporate this dry mixture into your wet mixture, stirring gently. Finally, add the white chocolate chips. Mix to distribute the chips evenly without overworking the dough.
Step 3: Shaping and cooking
Form small balls of dough about the size of a walnut, then place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper, leaving a little space between them. Flatten them slightly with the palm of your hand. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 12 minutes. Keep a close eye on the baking; your cookies should be soft in the center and barely golden around the edges.
Step 4: Cooling and tasting
Once baked, let your matcha cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will ensure they retain their perfect texture, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

You can vary this recipe according to your tastes or your current desires: add some crushed macadamia nuts or dried cranberries for a fruity touch.
