What Is Matcha Powder? 

Matcha powder is an East Asian green tea powder with unique flavor combinations. It’s a stone-ground powder made from shade-grown green tea. When you first taste matcha, you will find subtle earthiness and bitterness. It’s packed with antioxidants. 

Matcha powder has gained a lot of popularity in recent years due to its benefits and unique taste. Of course, it had to be introduced in baking products as well. These matcha cookies have slight bitterness from the green tea, which is paired intelligently with sweet white chocolate. Together, the cookies taste amazing.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe? 

  • New and unique: You must have read and made a lot of cookies, but I’m sure matcha cookies must not be on that list. It’s a rare cookie choice, so the recipe is quite unique. 
  • Well thought flavor combination: The pairing of white chocolate with matcha is well thought out as they complement each other well. The sweetness of white chocolate balances the earthiness and bitterness of matcha powder. 
  • Soft and light texture: Most matcha cookies recipe that you will find will have melted brown butter in them. Since I wanted to give a lighter and softer texture, I used soft butter only. It makes the cookies spread more and have a thin appearance. 

Important Ingredients Used In The Recipe 

  • Matcha powder: The cookies need good quality matcha powder as matcha is the dominant flavor component. The powder also provides a green color to the cookies, which makes their appearance different. 
  • White chocolate chips: besides the sugar, white chocolate is also one ingredient that provides sweetness and vanilla flavor, which counteracts matcha flavor. I have used Callebaut white chocolate chips in the recipe. 
  • Butter: Salted butter helps provide the buttery flavor base in the cookies. Using room-temperature butter is the key here. 
  • Egg and Brown sugar: These are the two main Hygroscopic ingredients that attract moisture from the environment, making the cookie chewy. That is why these cookies have a chewy soft texture. 

How To Make Matcha Chocolate Chip Cookies? 

  • Do the preparation: Collect all your ingredients in different bowls. Prepare a baking tray by lining it with butter paper or a silicon mat. Also, preheat the oven to 180C.

  • Start Creaming: In a bowl, cream together butter and both sugars. It should turn light and fluffy. 

  • Add Egg: Next, add the egg along with vanilla essence into the creamed butter. 

  • Dry ingredients: Sift the dry ingredients, which are flour, matcha powder, baking soda, and salt. Add these dry ingredients to the butter-egg mixture. Mix well to form a dough. 

  • White chocolate: The last step is to fold the white couverture chocolate chunks into the dough. Mix them well. 

  • Shaping: once the dough is ready, make balls of the dough weighing 50g each. Place them on a lined baking tray and Sprinkle some white chocolate chips on top. 

  • Freezing: place the tray with shaped cookie dough in the fridge for 15-20 minutes. 

  • Bake: Bake the cookies in a preheated oven at 180C.(OTG mode: lower rod + upper rod + fan) for 15-18 minutes. 

Chef’s Tips For The Recipe

Avoid Overmixing

Ensure you are mixing the dough just enough that all ingredients come together nicely. If you overmix the dough, it is likely to get sticky. 

Cool down the Cookies

Ensure the cookies have been completely cooled before storing them in an airtight box. The steam from warm or hot cookies will make the cookies soggy as the moisture will be trapped in the box. 

Add Nuts

Add nuts like walnuts, pecans, or macadamia to take the cookies to another level. This will add a crunch to the cookies. 

White Compound Chocolate

In place of Callebaut white chocolate chips, you may use chocolate chips made from compound chocolate as well.

How To Store Match Cookies? 

Store cooked cookies in an airtight in a cool and dry place. They will last up to a week. 

You can even freeze them in a zip-lock bag for a month. Thaw them in the fridge first and then at room temperature before consuming them. 

Leftover cookie dough can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 months, cling-wrapped, and put in an airtight box.

“I achieved 10% of my short-term manifestation before my target date”
Before this program I knew a little about manifestations, but as I discovered during the program, I had a lot of limiting beliefs that kept me from fully embracing and accepting myself as a manifestor.
During this program I became more aware of what manifestation is and how powerful I am. I become more aware of my guides, of my highest self and that I can pull the best of my highest self into my present. Since this program I no longer wrestle with trying to convince myself that what I desire will happen. I know that it has happened, it is done and it is mine, here and now. I achieved 10% of my short-term manifestation before my target date, my eyesight has improved and I no longer need glasses for distance vision, only for reading, I gave myself a make-over as part of my commitment to my renewal and I began to de-clutter my space.

“My professional and personal life has seen significant positive changes”
Joining “The Art of Manifesting” was a life-changing decision for me. This is now the third time going through the quest and focusing on different areas of manifestation.
Regan is a powerful guide and she walks the talk.
This 28-day journey was a blend of practical techniques and profound energetical activations. I learned to visualize my goals clearly, expand my possibilities, and overcome the limitations holding me back from living a life i desire. The quest’s unique approach to identity hacking helped me align my inner self with my aspirations, making the manifestation process more effective and authentic.
The biggest takeaway for me was the acceleration of manifestation by bending time and tapping into the highest frequencies. The techniques taught in the quest enabled me to see results much faster than I expected. My professional and personal life has seen significant positive changes, and goals that once seemed unattainable are now within reach.
I’m beyond grateful for the wisdom and tools I’ve gained from this quest and Regan. It’s not just about manifesting; it’s about transforming your entire lifestyle. I highly recommend “The Art of Manifesting” to anyone looking to turn their dreams into reality.

“This course and listening to Regan’s podcasts gave me the tools to acknowledge my blocks and mindsets around drinking”
I have so enjoyed this journey with Regan, I am a new person as a result of this quest. I now have new beliefs & mindsets that I keep working on daily, hourly. A kinder and more compassionate version of me has emerged over this journey, and I love her!
This quest has resulted in me finding the lost me, the me that has been hidden under the voices of doubt, fear or just lack of awareness that I get to run my life not the other voices in my head or family and people around me. When we wire ourselves to the future version of us, then we make different choices and we are already a different person!
Thank you Regan, thank you Mindvalley, thank you tribe!!!! ❤❤, I love you all and wish you a magical Christmas and hope our paths may cross one day at Mindvalley events.

“My family’s net income unexpectedly increased while I was taking the quest”
Before taking this Quest I believed that the prerequisites of success were hard work, long hours, timing and a degree of luck; “1% inspiration and 99% perspiration” was my mantra. Trying to achieve success with this mindset was exhausting, frustrating and unsustainable.

 

I then discovered The Art of Manifesting … and was blown away.

 

The foundational teaching of focusing on your inner world to achieve has been transformative in the way I live my life. I now know that cultivating the feeling of already being in possession of that which you want, accelerates the manifestation of what you desire.

 

My family’s net income unexpectedly increased while I was taking the quest, and have discovered a path to manifest greater abundance in the year to come. But perhaps the biggest shift I experienced during this quest now knowing that I am worthy and deserving of abundance. Regan, I am eternally grateful to you, thank you :-)

“Now, my manifestation is showing up right before my eyes in ways I hadn’t even considered”
Before this program, I believed somewhat in manifestation but never knew how to do it, or if it was real, and the little bit I did know ended up being completely wrong! This Quest has not only taught me how to manifest and put me on the path to doing it the right way, but I was actually able to manifest what I had set at the beginning.
I never thought it would actually come true, but I committed myself to the process and gave it 100% every day. And now, my manifestation is showing up right before my eyes in ways I hadn’t even considered. It’s truly blowing my mind.
I had a financial goal for the end of the Quest, and different opportunities for selling my artwork started coming up, and the deals are coming out almost to the exact number I had set.
Not only that, but I have truly transformed into a better version of myself in these short weeks, more than I had in the last few years, that my spouse has even noticed.
I’m so excited for what’s to come next and so grateful for this program. Thank you.

“I have written a 50,000-word book, that is now in design”
I joined Mindvalley on New Year’s 2023. I am excited to share how life has significantly changed in the first 90 days of the year. Beginning with the Silva Method, I envisioned and transformed a dysfunctional personal relationship, into a loving, caring separation, allowing me the peace and serenity to follow my path, and my partner to choose his. In February while on the Art of Manifesting Quest I listed my intent to have a book written by May 2023, and have a speaking engagement booked by December 2023.
I have written a 50,000-word book, that is now in design, and a journal for Women seeking a deeper connection with themselves, also in design. Both will be uploaded via KDP Amazon self-publishing by May 1st.
I have booked a speaking engagement for May with the intent of having published books with me for sale.
Most importantly – this morning I changed my profile from ‘Document writer’ to ‘Author.’
Gratitude abounds!!!
