Green Tea Pound Cake

Ingredients:

90g. plain flour (sifted)

1/2 tsp. baking powder (sifted)

1 tbsp. Matcha Powder (sifted)

100g. unsalted butter (room temperature)

75g. icing sugar (sifted)

2 large eggs (lightly beaten)

30g. white chocolate (melted and keep lukewarm)

Methods:

1. In a bowl, combine plain flour, baking powder and matcha powder together and set aside.
2. On a stand mixer, cream butter with half of the icing sugar until the butter mixture turns light and pale in color.  Add the remaining sugar and mix well.
3. Add the beaten egg slowly and beat until fluffy.
4. Fold in sifted flour in batches until all ingredients are incorporated.  Stir in the warm melted white chocolate.  Fold gently to combine well.
5. Transfer the batter to a lined loaf pan.  Smooth the top with a spatula.
6. Bake in a preheated oven of 170 degree Celsius for 50 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
7. Remove cake from the oven and place on a wire rack.
8. Sliced and serve!

I adapted this recipe from 'rasamalaysia.com' with a very slight adjustment to suit my baking preference.
