These Matcha Almond cookies are shortbread cookies. The cookies are crispy, buttery and rich in Matcha flavour. White chocolate chips gives it a sweet edge to tone down the Matcha’s bitterness. Its vivid green colour is also a pleasure to the eyes, perfect to serve it to your guests! Or for us, munching on it whilst working! Just can’t stop at one…
We used Tecno’s Gas Hob and multifunction oven for this recipe, you can also purchase Tecno’s ovens and stoves in their website too, so check out their website at https://goo.gl/UngMIv
