Equipment

  • 1 Large Mixing Bowl
  • 1 Hand Mixer or Stand Mixer with the paddle attachment
  • 1 Rubber Spatula
  • 1 3 Tablespoon Cookie Scoop
  • 1 Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons

Ingredients

  • 8 tablespoon Non-Dairy Butter
  • 1 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Matcha Powder see note
  • ¼ Cup Non-Dairy Milk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 ¾ Cup All Purpose Flour
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ¼ teaspoon Kosher Salt half this amount if using table salt
  • ½ Cup Mini Vegan White Chocolate Chips (plus more for topping) see note

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350* F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl using a hand mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the non-dairy butter, sugar, and matcha powder until well combined and fluffy.
    8 Tbsp Non-Dairy Butter, 1 Cup Granulated Sugar, 1 Tbsp Matcha Powder
  • Add the non-dairy milk and vanilla and mix on low until well combined.
    ¼ Cup Non-Dairy Milk, 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • Add the flour, baking soda, and salt, and mix on low just until the dough comes together. Then, add the white chocolate chips and stir to distribute.
    1 ¾ Cup All Purpose Flour, ½ tsp Baking Soda, ¼ tsp Kosher Salt, ½ Cup Mini Vegan White Chocolate Chips (plus more for topping)
  • Scoop the cookie dough with a 3-tablespoon cookie dough scoop onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Be sure to leave about 3 inches of space between each cookie. I like to bake 8 cookies at a time.
  • Top each cookie dough ball with a few extra chocolate chips, then bake in a 350* oven for 13-15 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies feel set to the touch.
  • Allow the cookies to cool of the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire cooling rack to continue cooling.
  • Repeat with the remaining cookie dough.

Notes

Be sure to use 100% matcha powder, NOT matcha latte mix!
