GREEN TEA CHEESECAKE



Green Tea Cheesecake image

This is a creamy and simple cheesecake with the addition of green tea powder to give it a taste of the Orient! Green tea powder can be found at Asian grocery stores and online. I like to add fresh blackberries and raspberries on top of it!

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Cake
1 cup (generous) ground shortbread cookies (about 6 ounces)
2 8-ounce packages cream cheese, room temperature (do not use whipped or "light" products)
1/2 cup (packed) fromage blanc*
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons Japanese green tea powder** or 2 teaspoons finely ground green tea from about 4 tea bags
Tisane
2 1/2-pint containers fresh red raspberries
2 1/2-pint containers fresh golden raspberries
1 bunch fresh mint
Boiling water

Steps:

  • For cake:
  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Press cookie crumbs firmly onto bottom (not sides) of 8-inch-diameter springform pan. Wrap outside of pan tightly with 3 layers of heavy-duty foil. Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese, fromage blanc, and sugar in large bowl until smooth. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating until incorporated after each addition. Beat in green tea powder until smooth. Pour batter over prepared crust in pan. Place cakein roasting pan; add enough hot water to roasting pan to come halfway up sides of springform pan.
  • Bake cake until set but center moves very slightly when pan is gently shaken, about 1 hour. Remove cake from roasting pan; cool 1 hour at room temperature. Refrigerate uncovered overnight. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Cover and keep refrigerated.)
  • For tisane:
  • Place 5 raspberries (mix of red and golden) and 3 mint leaves in each of 8 heatproof glasses. Fill glasses with boiling water; let steep 5 minutes.
  • Cut around pan sides to loosen cake; remove sides. Place cake on platter. Garnish cake with some raspberries. Cut cake into wedges. Serve each piece with a few raspberries and a glass of tisane.
  • *Fromage blanc is available at some supermarkets, cheese stores, and specialty foods stores.
  • **Green tea powder is available at Japanese markets.

GREEN TEA CHEESECAKE



Green Tea Cheesecake image

This is classic New York cheese cake with a Japanese twist. I got the Nutty Rice Cereal for the crust at my local health food store. If you can't find it, any sort of puffed rice cereal should work (though the less ingredients that are in it, the better). A more traditional cheese cake crust could also be used, but I believe that the rice compliments the green tea far better than graham crackers.

Time 1h55m

Yield 1 cheesecake, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups puffed rice cereal, crushed (Perky's brand Nutty Rice works well)
2 tablespoons sugar (less if using a sweetened cereal)
1/4 cup butter (melted)
24 ounces cream cheese
16 ounces sour cream
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons green tea powder (aka. matcha)

Steps:

  • Crush the cereal.
  • Put in a medium bowl and add the sugar.
  • Melt the butter and combine with the dry ingredients.
  • Mix well.
  • Cover the bottom and sides of your cake pan evenly with the crust mix (this recipes makes enough to fill a 9 inch cake pan, give or take).
  • Refridgerate while you make the filling.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • In a large bowl or food processor, beat the cream cheese until it starts to get fluffy (a food processor or electric mixer is easiest).
  • Add the remaining incredients and beat until it's fully mixed and there are no remaining clumps.
  • Pour the filling into the cake pan with the crust (depending on the shape and depth of your pan, you may end up with a little left over). Note that the cake has a tendency to puff up while cooking.
  • Cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until the surface is lightly browned.
  • Take the cheese cake out of the oven and allow it to cool.
