Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Brown the Butter: In a saucepan over medium heat, add unsalted butter and swirl gently as it melts until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: Whisk browned butter with granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, milk, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, sift together flour, matcha powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until evenly combined.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Fold in white chocolate chips.
  5. Chill Dough: Scoop dough onto parchment-lined baking sheet, cover, and chill for at least 45 minutes.
  6. Preheat Oven & Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C). Arrange chilled dough balls on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes.
  7. Cool: Allow cookies to sit on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
