How about trying something unique like Matcha Green Tea Cake Pops? Here's a recipe:
Ingredients:
For the cake:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons matcha green tea powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk
For the frosting:
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon matcha green tea powder
For assembling the cake pops:
- White chocolate or candy melts, melted
- Lollipop sticks
- Sprinkles or edible decorations (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch square baking pan.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, matcha powder, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a separate large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely.
6. While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting. In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and matcha powder, and beat until creamy and well combined.
7. Crumble the cooled cake into a large mixing bowl. Add about 1/2 cup of the frosting to the crumbled cake and mix until well combined. The mixture should hold together when pressed.
8. Roll the cake mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place the cake balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
9. Insert a lollipop stick into each cake ball, then freeze them for about 15-20 minutes to firm up.
10. Dip each cake pop into the melted white chocolate or candy melts, tapping off any excess. If desired, decorate with sprinkles or other edible decorations.
11. Place the decorated cake pops upright in a cake pop stand or styrofoam block to set.
12. Once the chocolate coating has set, your Matcha Green Tea Cake Pops are ready to enjoy! They make a delightful and unique treat for any occasion.
Enjoy your delicious and visually stunning Matcha Green Tea Cake Pops!
