Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ½ cup packed brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 large egg

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 320 degrees F (160 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 3

Combine superfine sugar, butter, and brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; beat on medium speed, then increase speed and continue to mix until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Mix in 1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour, matcha, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until combined. Mix in egg and vanilla, gradually lowering the speed setting until everything is evenly incorporated and you get a dough-like texture. Add chocolate chips and mix in evenly.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, about 10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet briefly before removing to a wire rack to cool, 5 to 10 minutes more.
