Matcha Almond Cookies pictures (1 of 4)When I posted the Matcha Roll recipe, I received a few requests from readers asking me to share more green tea (matcha) recipes. Matcha as an ingredient in baking has become increasingly popular, especially for people who are partial to Japanese cuisine. I personally love matcha: its powdery texture, earthy fragrance and aroma, and the subtle nuance it lends to the key ingredients, for example: matcha ice cream, matcha rolls, and in this case, matcha cookies.
So, when you are in the mood of making cookies and wanted to dress up your cookies with a little something, I strongly recommend adding matcha to your recipe. Just a tablespoon of the magical green powder and your cookies will taste so much different, and better. For my matcha cookies recipe, I kicked it up a notch by adding some almond slices. The end result is two dozens of gorgeously baked green-color matcha cookies that are supremely buttery, flaky, yet crunchy with the almond. They are perfect nibbles on warm summer days, perhaps with some matcha ice cream on the side.
Do you use Matcha in your baking? If so, I would love to learn from you. If you have savory recipes for Matcha, please also share your ideas by commenting below. Thank you!

This past weekend, I baked a batch of spritz cookies using my favorite cookie recipe, and they were gone in no time. (Spritz cookies are basically butter cookies made with a cookie press.) These…
How time flies. It was just like yesterday when the world was gearing up for Y2K bug and the potential millennium meltdown; fast forward 10 years, we are counting down to 2010, and 45 days left on 2009. It’s almost that time of year again…(get butter cookies recipe after the jump) I might be slightly early this year in terms…
Remember I have a talented contributor who is a baking goddess? She is back with another popular cookie recipe (previously, she shared the recipe of cornflakes cookies)—the all-time favorite chocolate chip cookies. I have to admit that I am not the biggest fan of chocolate (I know!) but I love chocolate chip cookie because it has the the benefit of…
By now, you should know that I am not a very good baker, even though I actually enjoy baking. There is a challenging baking recipe in my upcoming cookbook and I couldn’t get a consistent result and Pick Yin, a fellow Malaysian, came to my rescue and that’s how I discovered Life is Great, a blog about all the good…
