1. Gather all the ingredients.⁠
2. Combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour and 2 ½ Tbsp of matcha green tea powder in a large bowl.⁠
3. Sift the flour and the matcha powder.⁠
4. In a stand mixer, beat ¾ cup of unsalted butter until smooth & creamy.⁠
5. Add a pinch of salt and blend.⁠
6. Add 1 cup + 2 tsp of confectioners’ sugar/powdered sugar & blend until soft & light.⁠

8. Gradually add the flour & matcha mixture and mix until well-incorporated.⁠

10. Cut the dough in half and shape into 2 cylinders, about 1 ½ inch (4 cm) diameter, 7" (18 cm) long.⁠
11. Wrap the logs in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator until firm, at least 2 hours. To bake, let sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before cutting and baking. Do not let the dough fully defrost.⁠
