Green Tea Cut-Out Cookies

• 185 g flour
• 30 g walnuts, chopped (I used a mix of walnuts and hazelnuts)
• 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
• 100 g sugar
• 3 teaspoons green tea leaves, chopped finely (use a good quality tea with flowery taste for this)
• 60 g butter, melted
• 1 egg, beaten

1. First combine all of the dry ingredients in a big bowl.
2. Then add all of the wet ingredients at once and knead everything into a smooth dough.
3. On a lightly floured surface roll out the dough to desired thickness.
4. I left my cookies rather chunky as I dont like them too crisp.
5. Cut out cookies of desired shape (I made hearts) and place them on a paper-lined baking sheet.
6. Bake in the pre-heated oven at 180C/350F for about 15 minutes or until cookies are slightly browned around the edges.
7. Note: Depending on the thickness of your cookies this will vary.
8. Start checking thin cookies at 8 minutes.
