Use a trusted matcha powder. Since matcha is the star of this dish, make sure to use a high-quality matcha powder for the best results. There are tons of matcha powders out there and some are made with lower quality than others. I've used brands such as Matchabar, Junbi, and Matcha Bloom and they all have high-quality grade matcha.
Use Callebaut white chocolate melting chips. Callebaut white chocolate chips are the only white chocolate chips I ever use for my recipes. The white chocolate is rich, it's creamy, and it melts so easily.
Measure your ingredients with a scale! Sometimes using regular measuring cups and spoons will yield different results because not all measuring cups are made the same. Using a scale measures the ingredients by weight which means more precise measurements.
Chill the cookie dough. When you mix the ingredients together, you will notice that the dough is overly sticky and impossible to form dough balls. That is where the chilling comes into effect. The refrigerator will firm up the dough making it manageable to work with.
Completely coat the cookie dough with powdered sugar for the crinkle effect. If you want your crinkle cookies to look similar to mine, do not shy away from coating the cookie dough balls with powdered sugar. The more sugar added will accentuate the cracks and have a more dramatic matcha effect.
Storage Instructions
You can store these matcha crinkle cookies in an airtight container on your counter for up to 3 days. Alternatively, you can bake and store them in the freezer for up to 1 month.
