MATCHA GREEN TEA MOLTEN LAVA CAKES
Matcha green tea is mixed with white chocolate to create these delicate cakes with a molten lava center.
Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup white chocolate chips
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter melted
- 1/4 cup granulated white sugar
- 1 large egg
- 3 tbsp all purpose flour
- 1 tbsp high quality matcha powder I use Maeda-En Ceremonial Quality
- powdered sugar for dusting
Directions:
- Add white chocolate to a medium or large glass mixing bowl. Find a pot that is slightly smaller in diameter than your mixing bowl so that when you place the mixing bowl on top of the pot, the bowl will not touch the bottom of the pot. Add about 1 inch of water to your pot and bring to a simmer. Place bowl with chocolate on top. Slowly whisk chocolate until it is completely melted. This will take a few minutes.
- When chocolate is melted, turn off heat but keep your mixing bowl in the pot and on the stove. This will keep the batter warm. Add in melted butter and stir until butter is completely incorporated. Stir in sugar until smooth.
- Whisk in the egg until batter is smooth. Add in flour and whisk until smooth. Add in matcha powder and whisk again until smooth.
- Thoroughly grease the insides of two 4 oz ramekins with butter. Make sure you don't miss any spots, especially along the bottom of the ramekin, otherwise the cakes won't pop out properly. Lightly flour the inside of the ramekins. Turn ramekins upside down and hit a few times against counter so that any excess flour falls out.
- Divide batter evenly into the two ramekins. Place into freezer for 30 minutes.
