Rich, buttery shortbread with the subtle flavor of green tea. Pairs wonderfully with tea or with ice cream for a dessert! Cookies taste better the next day.

  • white sugar: 0.75 cup (for topping)
  • all-purpose flour: 2 cups

  3. 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.
