This super simple and delicious recipe is #sponsored by https://www.zulaykitchen.com ! I got the matcha I used from them, and I highly recommend that you check them out! Their high quality matcha gives these cookies a unique flavor and color, plus it adds a ton of antioxidants. What's not to love?
Photo Instructions:
Combine all dry ingredients except for the sugar.
In a separate bowl, cream the butter and sugar. Once combined, add in milk, egg, and vanilla.
Incorporate wet ingredients into dry ingredients in thirds. Bake in an oven preheated to 375 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until cookies begin to brown slightly at the edges. Allow to cool and enjoy warm!

Note* I paired my matcha cookies with coconut almond milk topped with whipped matcha. To make the whipped matcha, whip heavy whipping cream into stiff peaks, and add in matcha and powdered sugar to taste. To serve, pour ice and coconut almond milk (or any other milk) into a glass and top with whipped matcha.
