Matcha White Chocolate Chunk Cookies! (White chocolate chips seem to be really popular and was sold out so used white cooking chocolate). Matcha and white chocolate work really well together - This was a recipe for just white chocolate cookies and I just added matcha to it.
These were so good and easy to make. I had about 10 straight out of the oven. I need to stop baking this lock down is seriously making me fat!
Ingredients:
125g Unsalted Butter, softened
(Take it out over night)
100g Light Soft Brown Sugar
125g Caster/White Sugar
1 Egg
1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
225g Self Raising Flour
½ Tsp Salt
1 Tbsp Matcha Powder
100g White Chocolate Chips/Cooking Chocolate
What you need:
Mixing Bowl
2 Bowls
Wooden Spoon
Measuring Spoons
Sieve
Electric Whisk
Fork
Flat Baking Trays
Baking Paper
Oven 180°C
Baking time 7-8 minutes
Method:
Make sure you take your butter out the night before so it's nice and soft and mix it with the 2 sugars with your electric whisk until it turns pale and creamy. Use your wooden spoons to check the consistency.
In a little bowl beat your egg and vanilla with a fork.
Once they has been mixed you can pour it into your mixture and using your electric whisk, whisk until well mixed. Then use your wooden spoon again to check.
Then sift your flour, salt and matcha powder in and mix it together with your wooden spoon.
Then add your chocolate. I tried to break the chocolate into even size chunks.
Once your chocolate has been mixed in roll your dough into little balls and place them onto your lined trays.
Bake in the oven for 7-8 minutes.
Leave them to cool on the tray for a minute or two then transfer onto a wire rack.
I actually slightly over baked mine as I left them in the oven too long. They only need 7-8 minutes if you want them to stay soft and chewy even when they cool down. It's okay when you take them out and they're still soft.
The recipe I used said it would make about 12 cookies. I ended up with 39!
These are the best cookies I've made taste wise and look shop bought.
