Instructions
How to Make Matcha White Chocolate Chunk Cookies
- Brown the Butter: In a medium saucepan, heat the unsalted butter over medium heat until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooled brown butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add the egg, milk, and vanilla extract, whisking until glossy.
- Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, matcha powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine Ingredients: Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Gently fold in the white chocolate chips.
- Chill the Dough: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat Oven and Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 10-11 minutes until golden on edges and gooey in center.
- Cool the Cookies: Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
Chilling dough helps prevent spreading. Overbaking can dry out cookies.
