Instructions

  1. Beat together the butter and powdered sugar, until lightened in color, and fluffy in the bowl of your mixer. Add the egg yolk, and mix until combined.
  2. Whisk together both all-purpose flour and almond flour, salt and matcha into a medium mixing bowl.
  3. Add the dry ingredients to the mixer bowl and mix thoroughly until combined.
  4. Using a spatula, scoop the dough onto a piece of plastic wrap, and form into a 2-inch diameter log. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap, and freeze for 30 minutes.
  5. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line cookie sheets with parchment paper or Silpat (silicone baking mat).
  6. Unwrap the cookie dough log, and roll it in the crushed almonds, pressing down to ensure that the almonds sticks to the surface.
  7. Using a very sharp knife, cut into 24 slices, and arrange on the baking sheets.
  8. Bake the cookies for about 9 minutes. Allow cookies to cool slightly and move to a cooling rack.
