Matcha Green Tea Shortbread Cookies @senseicat

One of my friends and I enjoy baking together and right now we are obsessed with matcha recipes and this is delectable and a wonderful accompaniment to afternoon tea.

Ingredients:

2 cups of flour
1-2 Tablespoons of matcha powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter room temperature
1/2 cup powdered sugar

Directions:

Sift flour, tea, and salt into a bowl.

In a mixer bowl, beat butter and powdered sugar.

Add flour mixture to mixing bowl and mix slowly until dough just comes together.

Pull dough together carefully in a log 2 inches.

Wrap dough log and place in freezer 30 minutes.

Slice dough 1/4 inch rounds and place on parchment paper.

Roll out and cut into shapes.

Bake 325 degrees for 15-18 minutes & turn pan halfway through baking time.

Cool on rack.

Melt and dip into chocolate after baked and cooled.
