Matcha Sprinkle Snickerdoodles are a playful variation on classic snickerdoodle cookies, and they taste like your favorite matcha latte - but in cookie form!
It appears that snickerdoodle cookies are going to become my annual birthday blog post. Last year, I shared my Golden Spiced Snickerdoodles, and this year I’m presenting my Matcha Sprinkle Snickerdoodles! It should be obvious by now that snickerdoodles are my favorite cookie. And it’s my (birthday) party, so I’ll make what I want to!
When I first started playing with this cookie recipe, it didn’t include sprinkles. But as my content planning came together and it became apparent that this post would coincide with my birthday, I came across some beautiful, naturally-dyed rainbow sprinkles that complemented the earth tones of the matcha color in the cookies perfectly. They’re subtle, but they add a playful element that dress these cookies up for a party.
These Matcha Sprinkle Snickerdoodles are crisp on the outside, and soft and chewy on the inside. The matcha flavor is just right, and not overpowering. They’re an unexpected yet fun cookie to share with friends, and the batch size is just right for sharing. Mix up these Matcha Sprinkle Snickerdoodles for a friend’s birthday, your next party, or just for yourself!
