Inspired by my favorite green tea ice cream from a local Japanese restaurant, where they make it in-house with shards of chopped dark chocolate throughout, I created these easy + delicious Matcha Chopped Chocolate Cookies, which are also dairy-free, egg-free and nut-free. The chopped chocolate adds something special to the soft + chewy texture and appearance of these wonderful-tasting cookies. If you love the combination of matcha + chocolate, or are matcha-curious, you NEED to try this simple recipe.

Preheat oven to 325°. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
In bowl of stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, or in large mixing bowl using handheld electric mixer, beat on medium speed to combine plant butter, sugars, vanilla, and 1 1/2 tablespoons white grape juice. Add green food coloring; beat to combine, scraping sides of bowl, as needed.
In medium bowl, whisk to combine flour, baking soda, salt and Matcha powder.
Add dry mixture to bowl with plant butter mixture. Beat to combine; mixture will be a bit crumbly. Add remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons white grape juice; beat to combine.
Stir in chopped chocolate. Use #24 cookie scoop to scoop dough (level off excess dough back into bowl using a dull knife), spaced at least 2-inches apart, on prepared cookies sheets.
Bake on middle rack of oven for 12-14 minutes, or until cookies have spread out and appear just slightly “under-done.”
Cool 5 minutes before transferring to wire rack to continue cooling. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature. Makes 15 cookies.

Notes

Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
