Step-by-Step Instructions for Matcha Lavender Sugar Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and matcha powder until well combined.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the egg, sour cream (or yogurt), and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mix, beating until smooth.
  5. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until a soft dough forms.
  6. Scoop the dough into balls, flatten slightly, and chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
  7. Bake for 9-11 minutes until edges are set and centers appear slightly underdone.
  8. Let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
