This colossal combination of chewy Japanese mochi and creamy ice cream provides a double dose of matcha goodness. The mochi outside is made with glutinous rice flour and matcha powder, while the homemade ice cream center is also flavored with - you guessed it - even more matcha. Green tea lovers, rejoice!

Steps:
- Make mochi. Combine glutinous rice flour, sugar, matcha, and water in a microwave-safe bowl. Whisk until smooth. Cover and microwave for 3 minutes.
- Mix well with using a wooden spatula.
- Line a 10-inch (25 cm) bowl with plastic, set it aside, and sprinkle your tabletop with enough potato starch to avoid sticking.
- Mix the mochi mixture and place on top of the starch.
- Roll out the mochi larger than the bowl, about 15 inches (38 cm) across.
- Lay mochi over the plastic-lined bowl.
- Make the matcha ice cream. In a large bowl, add heavy cream, condensed milk, and matcha. Using a hand mixer, whip until thickened to soft peaks.
- Add the ice cream mixture into the mochi-lined bowl. Take the excess mochi and lay it over the middle, encasing the ice cream. Cover with plastic.
- Freeze at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Bring the mochi ice cream to room temperature for 15-30 minutes before serving so mochi has time to soften.
- Garnish with extra matcha on top, if you please.
- Enjoy!
