- 135 g (⅔ cups) caster sugar (golden or white)
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 215 g (1¾ cups) plain / all-purpose flour (see notes for self-raising flour swap)

- ½ teaspoon salt
- 10 g (2 teaspoon) matcha (green tea) powder
- 200 g (1¼ cups) white chocolate chips

- Cream together the butter and sugars until smooth.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla.
