Servings: 18 cookies
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, matcha powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Add the sugars and stir to combine. Add the egg and vanilla and continue whisking together for about a minute until well combined.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding together until just combined. The dough will be very soft. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper then set aside. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
With a medium spring-loaded cookie scoop, scoop a rounded ball of cookie dough and place it on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each.
Bake for 12-14 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the white chocolate
Place white chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the bowl for 30 seconds, stirring in between each interval, until the chips are just melted.
Use a fork to drizzle the melted chocolate over the cookies and allow to set completely.
My Top Tip: Chill the dough before scooping. The cookie dough will be super soft right after it's mixed! I like to refrigerate it for an hour or two before scooping it. This way, they'll spread properly in the oven.
Storage: The cookies will keep for up to 7 days in the fridge in an airtight container! I like to put layers of wax paper in the between the layers of cookies so they don't stick together.
Freezing: You can freeze the baked cookies for up to 3 months. Place them on a baking sheet in the freezer until they are completely frozen. Then transfer them to freezer bags or an airtight container. Just thaw at room temperature before enjoying. Or, you can make the dough ahead of time, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and freeze. When ready to bake, allow the dough to thaw in the fridge until you’re ready to form and bake the cookies.
