The best Vegan Matcha Cookies with white chocolate and roasted hazelnuts. These dairy-free, eggless cookies are soft & chewy! The recipe is easy to make and SOOOO delicious. You will love them as snack or dessert!
These vegan matcha cookies are simply the best! They are so flavourful, delicious, and gooey. Every time I am announcing to bake them, my boyfriend makes sure I bake at least 20 cookies, otherwise, they would be all gone in 5 minutes. I’ve made this recipe quite a few times and they always turn out perfect. I really hope you’ll love them as much as I do and enjoy these vegan matcha cookies.

TIPS FOR BAKING THE COOKIES
- Chop your chocolate: I recommend chopping white chocolate instead of using chocolate drops. When you chop your chocolate, the pieces vary in sizes and this makes every bite even more unique. I also like chopped chocolate better because it melts a bit more than dops.
- Make ahead: You can make the dough ahead of time and refrigerate it for up to 2-3 days. This makes preparing the cookies a way more easier if you plan to bake them for a certain occasion.
- Roast the hazelnuts: Roasting the hazelnuts really makes a difference. Roasted nuts bring much more flavor to your cookies.
- Do not overbake them: We want the cookies to be gooey, therefore you should not bake them too long. Even if they seem a bit soft, just take them out of the oven and leave them for a few minutes on your baking tray. When they cool down, they will start to harden.
