I know, I know, it's a while of my last post. I'm very sorry about it. Yesterday I made matcha cheesecake. I wanna share the recipe with you. It's my own recipe so that's why I added a lot of matcha powder so if you aren't familiar with the taste of matcha don't add it as much as I did. You might not like the result. Now matcha cheesecake is my favorite cheesecake. I definitely gonna do it again. I think it's prefect dessert for hanami festival picnic.
Matcha cheesecake:
1 package graham crackers, crushed
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3-4 tablespoons green tea powder (matcha)
3 leafs of gelatin
2 packages (400g) of cream cheese
2dl whipping cream
1 teaspoon of vanilla sugar
1 teaspoon of stevia ( you can also use white sugar)
Put the graham cracker crumbs in a mixing bowl. Drizzle in the melted butter and mix until evenly moistened. Press into the bottom of( a 20cm ) springform pan. Put the pan in a fridge until the topping is ready.
Put leafs of gelatin in the cold water. Whip the cream. Combine cream cheese with matcha powder and vanilla sugar. Melt the white chocolate and it with cream cheese-matcha-vanilla mixture. Add cream on the mixture.
Boil the water. Press the water off from the leafs of gelatin and add them 2 tablespoons of boiling water. Add the mixture to the cream cheese mixture and mix.
Take the springform pan off the fridge and add the cream cheese mixture on it. Put the pan back to the fridge and keep there 2-3 hours or over the night.
Matcha cheesecake served with matcha latte.
You can serve the cake with coffee or tea or with matcha latte, like I did. If you are curious to know how to make matcha latte let me know. I will post the recipe ;) It's also super easy to make.
Enjoy!
Till next time!~~
