Directions:Preheat the oven to 325º. Mix the match powder with a bit of hot water to form a paste. Mix the cream cheese, sugar, egg, and green tea paste until smooth. Taste a bit and see if it's strong enough. Melt the butter with the white chocolate. Mix in the sugar, eggs, vanilla, and flour. Whisk until smooth, but do not over mix. Line an 8 x 8 square baking dish with a sheet of foil or grease and flour it. Pour in half of the white chocolate batter. Then drop half of the cream cheese mixture on top in spoonfuls. Top the batter with the rest of the white chocolate brownie batter, then finally add the remaining half of the cream cheese mixture on top. Use a knife and swirl the brownie and cream cheese together to create a marbled pattern. Bake the brownies at 325º for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs. The center should be almost set. You don't want the toothpick to come out clean because that would mean the brownies have over baked. Cool in the pan until they come to room temperature, then put them in the refrigerator. They're best served cold, so let chill for about 3 hours. |
