02 - Whip together cooled butter and sugar for roughly a minute. Toss in the egg and vanilla, and blend until smooth.
03 - In a separate bowl, mix flour, matcha, baking soda, powder, and salt. Blend this into your wet mix until it’s all combined.
04 - Weigh out 53g dough balls, give them a quick roll, and press down a tiny bit. Chill them for 30 minutes.
05 - Preheat oven to 355°F/180°C, and bake six cookies at a time for 10-11 minutes until done.
06 - Rest the cookies on the baking sheet for 3 minutes, then move them to a rack to cool fully.
07 - Whip the mascarpone, vanilla extract, sugars, and cream together until fluffy peaks form.
08 - Swirl cream onto each cookie once cooled, and sprinkle lightly with matcha powder before serving.

# Notes:

01 - Use a scale for accurate measurements.
02 - Only put one tray in the oven at a time.
03 - Top with cream right before eating.
