Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, cream the softened butter until smooth. Then, sift the powdered sugar into the butter and mix gently with a whisk until just combined and no dry powder is visible. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the cookies tough.
Step 2
Add the softened cream cheese to the butter mixture. Whip with a whisk until the cream cheese is well incorporated and the mixture is smooth and creamy, resembling a soft ice cream base.
Step 3
Sift the cake flour and the matcha powder (or your chosen optional flavor powder) into the creamed mixture. Initially, use a spatula to gently combine the ingredients until they just start to come together, taking care not to create too much dust. Once the dough begins to clump, put on clean disposable gloves and knead the dough lightly with your hands. Avoid overworking the dough, as this can lead to tough cookies. Knead just until the ingredients are incorporated into a cohesive mass.
Step 4
You can create various flavors and colors for your scoop cookies by using strawberry, banana, or aronia powder instead of matcha powder in the base dough. For strawberry flavored dough, add dried cranberries. For banana flavored dough, incorporate finely chopped processed cheese. For aronia flavored dough, add raisins to enhance the flavor. Gently mix in these additions after adding them to the dough.
Step 5
Gently mix in your chosen powder and any additional ingredients (like chocolate chips, cranberries, cheese, or raisins). Mix just until everything is combined, being careful not to overwork the dough. Use an ice cream scoop to portion the dough into desired sizes and place them onto a baking sheet, ensuring there’s some space between each cookie. To prevent the dough from sticking to the scoop, you can lightly dampen it with water or brush it with a little oil before scooping.
Step 6
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) for 15 minutes. Once preheated, reduce the oven temperature to 150°C (300°F) and bake the scooped cookies for approximately 20 minutes. Keep an eye on the cookies and adjust the baking time as needed until they are lightly golden brown. Once baked, remove the adorable scoop cookies from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack before enjoying your delicious creation!
