A common mistake among non-Japanese is to think the grean tea used in desserts is the green tea that is served in Japanese restaurants. The kind used in desserts is the special kind used in tea ceremonies, which comes in the form of powder and tastes completely different from the regular green tea that comes in the form of leaves.
"But on a cookie"? You kidding? The powdwered green tea has been used in desserts for centuries now. It didn't start with Pocky!
