I have seen Kelli's Matcha cookies everywhere I browsed and told myself that I must make it! But I couldn't find any matcha powder at the place I stay! May I ask where did you buy your matcha powder?</p> Thanks for the details! I have seen Kelli's Matcha cookies everywhere I browsed and told myself that I must make it!

I find it fascinating how different everyones kitchen can be. Beating the butter longer and starting with the butter and eggs at room temperature are definitely good ideas. When I make the dough it is very moist and doesn't fall apart, so I'm curious about how yours was cracking on the edges. Maybe it was too cold to roll out? At the Amai kitchen we use really big, strong mixers so it whips the butter into shape quickly. I suppose we're lucky with that :) I have actually made this using a food processor with cold butter and it turns out well too. It's a pretty versatile dough that way. The only problem I've ever had with these comes in the summertime. If you leave the sugar coated cookies out in a warm/humid room before baking the crust may crackle. Looks like you had no trouble with this. The cookies came out beautifully and held their shape well. Nice picture too! Hope to see you at the store some day.

But this is good, because I just love these cookies.<br /> Thanks Lydia - green tea cookies have a unique flavor and as they are made with tea it's perfect for that .<br /> Hi T.W. - yeh...dissecting a recipe is my weakness...although I have not gotten the science and patience of it down yet.<br /> Hi Kelli - thanks for all the tips and pointers! I did wonder if I could use a food processor for this with cold butter. Also I think my dough was too cold which was why it was breaking at the edges. I'll be trying your suggestions soon!<br /> </p> Hi Patricia – if you like having tea, these tea cookies are just made for them!
