INGREDIENTS
Main Ingredients
- ·100g butter
- ·2 cooked egg yolks
- ·100g low-gluten flour
- ·80g cornstarch
Additional Ingredients
- ·7g matcha powder
- ·2 drops red pigment
- ·40g white chocolate liquid
- ·10g sugar beads

- ·1g salt
DIRECTIONS
Step 1
Take 100g of butter and add 60g of icing sugar. Use an electric mixer to whip it until the color becomes lighter. Let air fully blend in to increase the fluffiness of biscuits.
Step 2
Sieve 2 cooked egg yolks and add them to the whipped butter. Use tools such as a spatula to mix well to evenly distribute the egg yolks in the butter and further enrich the flavor.
Step 3
Mix 100g of low-gluten flour, 80g of cornstarch and 1g of salt, sift them, and add them to the above mixture. Then use a spatula to stir evenly. Then knead to form a dough. Be careful not to over-knead to avoid gluten formation in the dough.
Step 4
Divide the dough into two equal parts. Add 7g of matcha powder to one part and 2 drops of red pigment to the other part. Knead separately to make the dough show two colors of green and red for making biscuits of different colors later.
Step 5
Divide the colored dough into small doughs of about 10g each. Then roll them into balls and place them on the baking tray in turn. Then gently press with your thumb to make depressions in the middle of the biscuits to prepare for decoration.
Step 6
Squeeze an appropriate amount of white chocolate liquid into the depressions of the biscuits for decoration to make the biscuits look more beautiful and at the same time add chocolate flavor.
Step 7
Finally, sprinkle some sugar beads on the biscuits. Put the baking tray into an oven preheated to 170 degrees and bake for 18 minutes. The biscuits are then made.
