Matcha Pistachio Shortbread Cookies

If you love matcha, pistachios, and white chocolate, these shortbread cookies are your dream come true 💚 Crisp on the edges and tender in the middle, these cookies are the perfect balance of bold flavour and a melt in your mouth texture. They’re buttery, not too sweet, a little earthy, a little fancy, and just ridiculously good with a cup of tea.

Save this one for when you want something cozy but a little extra ✨

Recipe:

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 3/4 cup flour
  • 1 heaping tbsp of matcha powder
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped pistachios and some extra for topping
  • Pinch of salt
  • White chocolate
  1. In a bowl, cream butter and sugar.
  2. Mix in the flour, matcha and salt.
  3. Stir in pistachios.
  4. Roll dough into a log, wrap with plastic wrap and put into the fridge for at least an hour.
  5. Preheat oven to 350F.
  6. Slice the dough into 1/2 inch slices. Place cookies on a greased baking sheet or parchment lined. Bake at 350F for 10-12 minutes.
  7. Let the cookies cool completely on a cooling rack.
