White Chocolate Pistachio Matcha Cookies
These matcha cookies are bursting with flavor! Made with delicious matcha powder, melty white chocolate, and salty chopped pistachios. Perfectly soft and chewy in the center and crunchy around the edges. The dough doesn't require any chilling, so you'll have warm gooey cookies ready in just 30 minutes!
Ingredients
- 1 cup salted butter room temperature
- 1 ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 ½ tablespoons matcha powder
- 1 ½ cups chopped white chocolate or white chocolate chips
- ½ cup chopped pistachios roasted and salted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Using a stand mixer or electric hand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until fluffy and lighter in color, about 2 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla until just combined.
- Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and matcha. Beat until just combined (the dough may seem crumbly at this point). Add the white chocolate and pistachios, then use a rubber spatula to fold them in until everything is combined and the dough is holding together.
- Roll 2 tablespoons of dough at a time and place evenly spaced on the prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 9-10 minutes, or until the cookies are set around the edges but still very soft in the center. Remove from the oven and let sit for 2 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack. Repeat with the remaining dough.
- If desired, while the cookies are still hot and fresh out of the oven, top with more chocolate chunks and sprinkle with more chopped pistachios.
