Smooth, velvety, and packed with rich matcha flavor, this matcha cheesecake is the most decadent dessert. This foolproof matcha cheesecake recipe will guide you to make the most delicious green tea cheesecake you have ever tasted.
My love for cheesecake recipes is as deep as a well-seasoned New York cheesecake. But when whispers of a matcha-infused Japanese version started swirling through the baking world, my heart turned into a matcha mochi, soft and yearning. This wasn't just another dessert; it was a portal to a green nirvana, a symphony of earthy elegance waiting to be composed. My first attempt was a clumsy stumble through the bamboo forest of matcha. The cake emerged lopsided, the vibrant green splotched with pale patches of unyielding cheese. But like a samurai facing defeat, I rose, brush in hand, ready to paint a new masterpiece. The key, I discovered, lay in the matcha itself. Not just any green powder would do. Only the finest ceremonial grade, vibrantly colored and subtly bitter, could hold its own against the creamy richness of the cheesecake. Whisked with sugar and cream cheese, it became a verdant canvas, ready for the next layer. The first bite was an epiphany. The cheesecake, light as a haiku, dissolved on my tongue, leaving a trail of creamy matcha bliss. NUTRITIONAL PROFILE Before we tiptoe through the emerald wonderland of Matcha Japanese Cheesecake Recipe, let's marvel at its vibrant nutritional threadbare. Woven with antioxidant whispers and the verdant touch of matcha, this dessert doesn't just enchant your taste buds, it drapes your indulgence in a cloak of well-being. INGREDIENTS 200g cream cheese, softened 60g unsalted butter 100ml whole milk 6 large eggs, separated 100g granulated sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 70g cake flour 30g cornstarch 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons high-quality matcha powder RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS STEP 01 Prepare and Preheat: Preheat your oven to 320°F (160°C). Line the base and sides of a 8-inch (20cm) round cake pan with parchment paper. STEP 02 Matcha Infusion: In a small bowl, whisk the matcha powder with a splash of hot water until a smooth paste forms. Set aside to cool. STEP 03 Melt and Blend: In a double boiler, melt the cream cheese, butter, and milk until smooth. Allow the mixture to cool slightly. STEP 04 Egg Yolk Harmony: Whisk the egg yolks and sugar until pale and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and the melted cream cheese mixture, incorporating the matcha paste for a vibrant green hue. STEP 05 Flour Fusion: Sift in the cake flour, cornstarch, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the matcha-infused batter until just combined. STEP 06 Whipped Brilliance: In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the batter, ensuring a light and airy texture. STEP 07 Bake to Brilliance: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and tap it on the counter to release any air bubbles. Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes or until the top is golden and the center is set. STEP 08 Cooling Masterpiece: Allow the Matcha Japanese Cheesecake to cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar, then refrigerate for a few hours or overnight before serving.

The Japanese cheesecake took me three years to perfect, so don’t feel too discouraged if your Japanese cheesecake is not perfect the first time. When a nearly perfect Japanese Cheesecake comes out of the oven, it’s an ethereal experience. You’ll want to bake this airy, melt-in-your-mouth showstopper repeatedly. I made a matcha version of my Japanese cheesecake and it’s floral and leafy with a hint of umami. Add a bit of yuzu or lemon juice, and it’ll be the most refreshing and addictive Japanese cheesecake you’ll ever make.Note: Once refrigerated and “aged”, the cake will transform into a denser yet still light cheesecake.
