- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup white sugar, plus more for topping
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons green tea powder (matcha), or more to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Place a sheet of parchment paper or plastic wrap on a work surface and dust with flour. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Beat butter in a bowl using an electric mixer until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add 3/4 cup sugar and continue beating until mixture is lighter in color, about 2 minutes more.
- Mix flour, green tea powder, and salt together in a separate bowl; gradually add to creamed butter mixture, beating on low speed until dough sticks together. Roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness on the floured parchment paper; cut into 2-inch cookies or bars. Roll remaining dough and cut into more cookies until all the dough is used. Refrigerate for 10 minutes.
- Carefully transfer cookies to the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle sugar over each cookie.
- Bake in the preheated oven until firm and barely starting to turn golden, about 15 minutes. Cool completely.
