Ingredients:  
2 c. all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
2 T. finely ground green tea leaves (from about 8 tea bags)
1 T. matcha
½ t. salt
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened
½ c. plus 2 T. confectioners' sugar

Directions:
Whisk together flour, tea, matcha, and salt in a small bowl. Cream together butter and sugar in a mixer bowl on medium until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. On low, slowly mix in flour mixture until just combined.

Divide dough in half. Transfer each half to a piece of parchment paper; shape into logs 1 1/4 inches in diameter. Roll each log in parchment, pressing a ruler along edge of parchment at each turn to narrow log and force out air. Freeze 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Unwrap frozen logs and slice 1/4 inch thick. Place an inch apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until edges turn golden, 13 to 15 minutes. Let cool on baking sheets on wire racks.

Don't knock these because they are green - they are delicious!

Matcha can be hard to find; I ordered some from Amazon.

This is from Martha Stewart. I may or may not have changed something (I can't remember), so erring on the side of caution and giving due credit.
