These matcha, macadamia nut, and white chocolate monster cookies from Kat Lieu's upcoming cookbook, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/108-Asian-Cookies-Not-Too-Sweet-Third-Culture/dp/0316579165/">108 ASIAN COOKIES</a>, are a bold upgrade to the classic bakery cookie. Inspired by Levain’s famously thick treats, these “monsters” are crisp on the outside, soft in the middle, and absolutely packed with flavor. Earthy matcha, creamy white chocolate, and crunchy macadamia nuts create a perfectly balanced bite, while a touch of red miso adds depth and umami richness. Oversized, chewy, and vibrant green, these cookies are a showstopper.
