I have to sincerely admit that these cookies are so Yummy-Yum-Yum! The combination of Matcha and white chocolate are to die for, especially being a Matcha fan ~ Thumbs Up! ~

Ingredients:

180 g. plain flour (sifted)

1 tablespoon Matcha powder (high-quality culinary grade)

1 tablespoon milk powder

2 teaspoon baking powder (sifted)

1/2 teaspoon salt

115 g. unsalted butter (softened to room temperature)

100 g. granulated sugar (if you have a sweet tooth, add up to 150 g.)

1 large egg (room temperature)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

100 g. white chocolate (chopped)

Methods:

1. In a small bowl, stir together flour, matcha powder, milk powder, baking powder and salt.  Set aside.
2. In the mixer bowl add butter and beat until very creamy.  Add sugar and cream together until very creamy and fluffy about 3-4 minutes.
3. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, and mix again until combined.
4. Add the flour mixture into the butter mixture and mix using low speed until almost combined with some flour patches left.
5. Add in the white chocolate and finish folding the dough together with a spatula until just combined.  Don't overmix.
6. Scoop out balls of cookie dough using an ice-cream scooper, and place them on a lined baking sheet with some space in between for spreading.
7. Bake in a preheated oven of 176 degree Celsius for 12-14 minutes or until the edges are set but the middle is still soft.
8. Remove from oven and place on a rack to cool slightly, then remove the cookies onto a wire rack to let it cool completely.
9. Store in an airtight container.
10. Enjoy this delicious cookies any time of the day, either with a cup of freshly brewed tea or coffee or without.  It works either way for me hehehe...

The cookies are ready for baking!
