Step-by-Step Instructions for Matcha White Chocolate Swirl Cookies
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (3-5 minutes).
  3. Beat in the egg until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, matcha powder, and baking powder.
  5. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until no flour streaks remain.
  6. Divide the dough in half; keep one half plain and mix the other half with an additional tablespoon of matcha powder.
  7. Gently fold matcha dough into plain dough to create a marble effect.
  8. Shape dough into small balls (about 1.5 inches in diameter) and place on the baking sheet 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are light golden brown and centers are soft.
  10. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
