Chewy, sweet and coated with crunchy sugar, these Matcha Green Tea Cookies<\/strong> are made with melted butter and 2 scoops of matcha powder. They bake up crispy on the edges with fudge-like centers. Real matcha lovers will love these for an afternoon treat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is your life before you discover my small batch easy sugar cookies<\/a><\/span>, and then there is life after. Once you realize you can have warm, chewy, perfect sugar cookies with a crisp sugar crust in 15 minutes because my recipe uses melted butter, you’re never the same person. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your mind immediately starts thinking of different flavors. Can I add freeze-dried strawberries? Or, can I make a matcha version? Can I make them eggless sugar cookies<\/a><\/span>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, yes, and yes! We’re adding 8 grams of matcha today. A typical matcha uses around 2 grams. So, we’re making 12 cookies with 8 grams, which is nearly 1 full gram of matcha per cookie. You can have 2 cookies or a matcha latte. Or, you could have 3 plus a matcha latte on the side, like I did. (I got so much work done yesterday!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Side note: this recipe is so easy to cut in half exactly down the middle, and you’ll get 6 cookies!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
