Best Matcha White Chocolate Sugar Cookies Recipes

MATCHA AND WHITE CHOCOLATE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 320 degrees F (160 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine superfine sugar, butter, and brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; beat on medium speed, then increase speed and continue to mix until smooth and creamy.
• Mix in 1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour, matcha, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until combined. Mix in egg and vanilla, gradually lowering the speed setting until everything is evenly incorporated and you get a dough-like texture. Add chocolate chips and mix in evenly.
• Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, about 10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet briefly before removing to a wire rack to cool, 5 to 10 minutes more.

MATCHA-WHITE CHOCOLATE SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• Whisk 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoons matcha in a small bowl; set aside.
• Whisk flour, baking soda, salt, and remaining 2 tablespoons matcha in a medium bowl. Using an electric mixer on mediumhigh speed, beat butter, brown sugar, honey, and remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar in a medium bowl until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add egg, egg yolk, and lemon zest and mix until very pale, about 4 minutes.
• Reduce mixer speed to low and, with motor running, add flour mixture; mix until no dry spots remain. Using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, mix in white chocolate.
• Wrap dough in plastic and chill at least 2 hours and up to 5 days. If chilling more than a few hours, let dough sit at room temperature 1 hour to soften before scooping and baking.
• Preheat oven to 350°. Scoop the dough by the scant tablespoonful onto 2 parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing about 1" apart. (Or, for neat and tidy cookies with perfect edges, like the ones in our photo, portion same amount of dough into the cups of a mini muffin pan coated with nonstick vegetable oil spray.)
• Bake cookies, rotating baking sheet halfway through, until bottoms and edges are barely golden and cooked (top will no longer look wet), 8-10 minutes.
• Immediately-but gently-toss cookies in reserved matcha sugar and place on wire racks; let cool.

MATCHA GREEN TEA CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease baking sheets or line with parchment paper.
• Sift flour, matcha, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl. Beat brown sugar, butter, and white sugar together in a large bowl using an electric mixer until blended; beat in vanilla extract, egg, and egg yolk until light and creamy.
• Mix flour mixture into creamed butter mixture until dough is just blended; fold in chocolate chips using a wooden spoon. Drop cookie dough, 1 heaping tablespoon per cookie, onto the prepared baking sheet 2 to 3 inches apart.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges are lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool cookies on the baking sheet for 2 to 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
