Matcha Burnt Cheesecake

Ingredients:

200 g. Cream Cheese (room temperature)

10 g. Matcha

50 g. caster sugar

1 1/2 eggs

1/2 egg yolk

100 ml. whipping cream

Methods:

1. In a small bowl, add 50 g. caster sugar and 10 g. Matcha.  Mix to combine.  This helps to prevent lumps in the batter.  Set aside.
2. In a clean bowl, add cream cheese.  Use a spatula to mix it well.  Pour in the matcha and sugar mixture, continue to mix.  Then change to a whisk and whisk until well incorporated.
3. Add in eggs, one at a time, and continue to whisk until well combined.
4. Lastly, add in whipping cream, whisk to mix until well incorporated.
5. Pour mixture into a 3.5" round pan lined with parchment paper.  Tap on the kitchen top to remove air bubbles.
6. Bake in a preheated oven of 220 degree Celsius for 24 minutes.
7. Place the  pan over a wire rack to let it cool completely.
8. I lift the cake out of the pan, place it in an airtight container, and leave in the fridge overnight.

Before baking

Let's enjoy!

Note:

• I make half portion only from the original recipe, thus, if you want to make a larger cake, just double the recipe and use a 6" round pan.  Increase the oven temperature to 230 degree Celsius.
