- ½ cup unsalted butter (1 stick, softened)
- ½ cup packed powdered sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon matcha powder
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅓ cup sliced almonds (lightly chopped)
Steps
Sift together the all-purpose flour, matcha powder, and salt.
Using an electric mixer on medium speed, cream the butter and powdered sugar until fluffy.
Lower the mixer speed and add the sifted ingredients, 1 tablespoon at a time, until a dough forms. Add the sliced almonds in 3 batches, and stop the mixer immediately once everything is combined.
Remove the dough and place it on a piece of plastic wrap about 22 inches (56 cm) long. Roll the dough into a log about 1 1/2 inches (3.5 cm) thick. Wrap the log in the plastic wrap and freeze for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 325°F (162°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Remove the dough from the freezer and use a sharp knife to cut it into slices about 1/4 inch (5 mm) thick. Arrange the cookie dough on the baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches (5 cm) apart.
Bake the cookies for 14–16 minutes on the middle rack. Remove them from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before storing in airtight containers.
