Green tea almond cookies

Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon matcha
• 1 cup finely ground almonds
• 2 - 1/4 cups all purpose flour
• confectioner's sugar for sprinkling

Preparation

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, cream the butter and the sugar until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
• Add the vanilla extract and the ground almonds and mix until all the ingredients are thoroughly incorporated. Slowly mix in the flour and matcha.
• Make a ball with the dough and flatten with the ball of your palms. Place onto un-greased cookie sheets, leaving several inches between for expansion.
• Bake 12-15 minutes until lightly browned. Cool the cookies on the sheet for 1 minute, then remove to a rack to cool completely. When cooled, sprinkle with confectioners' sugar.
