Description

Ingredients

• 1 cup butter (softened)
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 3 cups flour
• ½ tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp Kosher salt
• 1½ tbs matcha powder

Directions

• Cream together the butter and sugar in large mixing bowl.
• Add the eggs and vanilla. Mix.
• Add the flour, baking powder and salt, and mix well.
• Take out about half the dough, ball it up. wrap in plastic wrap and put aside.
• Add the matcha powder to dough remaining in bowl, and mix until color is thoroughly blended.
• Ball this dough up, and wrap, as well. Refrigerate the dough for about 15-20 minutes, just enough to stiffen it a little.
• Divide each ball in half then roll out into long rectangle. Tuck edges in as they crack, helping the dough to obtaining a relatively uniform shape.
• Lay one white over one green and vice versa.
• Trim off edges. And gently roll like a cigar (plastic wrap can be helpful in doing this). You will end out with two long dough logs.
• Place the dough logs in refrigerator for at least an hour.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Take out the dough, and slice off ¼ inch cookies. Place the cookies on parchment lined baking sheets.
• Bake for 12-14 minutes. Pay close attention after about 10 minutes, we dont want these cookies to brown at all on tops.
• Place cookies on racks.to cool.
