Calories in Starbucks Matcha & White Chocolate Cookie

Calories in Starbucks Matcha & White Chocolate Cookie come in at 397 per piece, and I’ll admit I was skeptical the first time I saw matcha paired with a cookie instead of a latte — it felt like a flavor experiment more than a real bakery item. One bite in, though, and the earthy matcha actually balances the white chocolate chunks instead of getting lost under them. At 33g of sugar, it’s one of the sweeter cookies in the case, so this isn’t the one to reach for if you’re watching sugar closely.

It’s vegetarian, but wheat, milk, egg and soy all show up in the dough, so it’s not a pick for anyone managing multiple allergies. The 17g of fat and just 5.6g of protein tell you this is dessert, not a snack that’ll hold you over.

If you’re someone who reaches for the Millionaire Shortbread for its sweetness or the Caramel & Chocolate Brownie for the caramel hit, this cookie sits in similar territory, just with a green-tea twist. I’d put it ahead of the Speculoos & Caramel Crispie if you actually like matcha, behind it if you don’t.
