Chewy Matcha Green Tea Cookies
May 17, 2015
Baking Therapy: A treat for our inner child, dedicated to the young at hearts who have held continuous faith, remained un-jaded, and never ceased to dream.
I believe there's a child in all of us, some more present than others, but most are hidden away and suppressed by the pressures from life. It's time to awaken your inner-child with these cookies, and remember how it's like to be free-spirited again, seemingly undaunted by anything, and curious about everything.
Who says cookies are only for kids?
These chewy matcha cookies are a treat for both adults and children alike. Its chewy, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth goodness brings back fond childhood memories of grandma/mummy's freshly made butter cookies; The matcha flavor tones down the level of sweetness to suit an adult's palette.
They can be enjoyed with fresh milk, coffee, or tea, and even on its own!
