Cheesecake Recipe ∘ Green Tea Cheesecake

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!

Ingredients

• 2 (8 ounce) containers fat-free cream cheese, softened
• 2 eggs, beaten
• ¾ cup white sugar
• 1 tablespoon green tea powder
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker pie crust

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Mix in the green tea powder, eggs, and vanilla extract until lightly and creamy; pour into the prepared crust.
3. Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the center jiggles evenly when the cake is shaken lightly. Refrigerate 1 hour before serving.
