Matcha Brownies
with matcha cheesecake
Swirls of matcha green tea create the perfect balance of healthy matcha and indulgent chocolate.
- Pre-heat your oven to 175°C and grease a square baking pan.
- For the brownie mixture: In a medium bowl, melt the milk chocolate and butter together. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together until fluffy, then add the eggs and sugar mix until fully combined.
- Sift the flour and cocoa mixture gently into the egg mix until combine into a smooth batter. Add the vanilla extract and pour 3/4 of the brownie batter into the pre-greased tin, ensuring the batter is spread to the edges.
- For the cheesecake mixture: Beat the cream cheese using a food mixer until smooth and creamy at a medium speed. Stop the mixer and sift 1 tbsp of Tea Labs Organic Ceremonial Matcha into the cream cheese and beat until fluffy (2-3 minutes)
- Add the melted white chocolate and 1 egg - beat until creamy and well combined.
- For the marble texture: Add the finished matcha cheesecake mixture on top of the brownie mix to create a smooth even layer.
- Add the remaining 1/4 of the brownie batter on top of the matcha cheesecake layer in tablespoon dollops.
- Then using a sharp knife, swirl the brownie batter into the matcha cheesecake to create a marbled pattern.
- Bake the brownies in the oven for approximately 30 minutes, and then let cool. Keep brownies refrigerated so they last longer & enjoy!
