Equipment
- 1 baking tray

Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cup All purpose flour 180 grams
- 1 tablespoon Matcha Powder/ Green tea powder
- 1 tablespoon Powdered milk
- ½ teaspoon Baking powder
- ½ teaspoon Salt
- ½ cup Butter

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix the flour, matcha powder, powdered milk, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until evenly combined.

- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Notes

- Don’t overmix the dough; it keeps the cookies soft.

- Measure flour accurately to avoid dense cookies.
- Use room-temperature ingredients for better mixing.
