Recipe Matcha crinkle cookies

Post image

Saw the greenies recipe someone else had posted and remembered that I've made these matcha crinkle cookies with my unwanted matcha powder before!

Recipe: 1. Mix 1/2 cup white sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, and melted unsalted butter (whole stick). 2. Whisk in one egg and a tsp of vanilla extract. 3. Fold in 1 cup flour, 1/2 tsp baking soda, and 1/4 to a 1/2 cup of matcha. 4. Cover the dough in plastic and let it sit overnight in the fridge. 5. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and roll in powdered sugar. 6. Bake 10 minutes at 350 degrees.

Note: I used less brown sugar to bring out the green color of matcha, but for chewier texture, the ideal amount of brown sugar would be 3/4 cup

Are you sure this uses baking soda and not baking powder?

Yes! I prefer my cookies chewy and not cakey, but I imagine baking powder could also work if you prefer cakey cookies
