MATCHA GREEN TEA FROSTING/ICING



Matcha Green Tea Frosting/Icing image

I love a good buttercream frosting made with real ingredients. I love matcha/green tea. How could I NOT combine the two?! The kind of matcha I buy comes in 5g packets, so I would use 5 packets to get 25g of powder. This is standard batch that makes enough to frost about 24-30 normal sized cupcakes; 10-15 Texas Muffin sized ones.

Time 10m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup butter
8 ounces cream cheese
3 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons matcha green tea powder

Steps:

  • Bring butter to room temperature by letting it sit out for 1 or 2 hours.
  • Beat butter and cream cheese at medium speed until creamy.
  • Sift 3 cups of powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon of matcha powder into the butter/cream cheese mixture and beat to combine.
  • Taste. Add more matcha if desired (some matcha powder is stronger then others) and more powdered sugar if its not thick enough.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality matcha powder: The quality of the matcha powder you use will greatly impact the flavor of your frosting. Look for a powder that is bright green in color and has a fine texture.
  • Sift the matcha powder: Sifting the matcha powder before using it will help to remove any lumps and ensure that it is evenly distributed throughout the frosting.
  • Use cold butter and cream: Cold butter and cream will help to create a light and fluffy frosting. Make sure to let the butter and cream come to room temperature before using them.
  • Beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the frosting and make it smooth and creamy.
  • Add the matcha powder and vanilla extract: Add the matcha powder and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture and beat until well combined.
  • Add the cream gradually: Add the cream to the frosting mixture gradually, beating until the frosting reaches the desired consistency.
  • Chill the frosting before using: Chilling the frosting before using will help it to set and firm up.

Matcha green tea frosting is a delicious and versatile frosting that can be used on a variety of desserts. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste.
