Wonderful Green Tea Cheesecake!
Ingredients
· 2 x 8ozs containers cream cheese, softened ( 460 Grams)
· 2 eggs, beaten
· 3/4 cup white sugar
· 1 tbsp green tea powder
· 2 tsp vanilla extract
· 1 x 9 inch prepared graham cracker pie crust
Method
Preheat oven to 150 CBeat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Mix in the green tea powder, eggs, and vanilla extract until light and creamy, and then pour this mixture into the pie crust.
Bake in pre-heated oven for 30 minutes, or until the center 'jiggles' evenly when the cake is shaken lightly.
Put into the fridge for an hour before serving.
If you don't mind the extra fat content, whip up some cream and put it in swirls onto the top. You can add any sorts of berries for flavor and decoration.
Enjoy!
Can add 2 .5 teaspoon of green tea powder and about 3/4 cups of low-fat yogurt. It gives a lighter softer texture. Can replace white sugar with brown sugar.

ReplyDeleteI have tried Ricota Cheese cream(Smooth)and 1/2 of Sugar. It taste lighter and good as well.
ReplyDeleteCan replace white sugar with powdered(Icing) sugar.
ReplyDeleteIf you use Arnnot's Scott Finger or Ginger Nut, just add butter to for base. No sugar is required.
