I don't recommend this recipe. The cupcakes were dry and the frosting was too sweet.

I used matcha powder instead of green tea leaves and the cupcakes turned out great.

The cupcakes rose a lot in the oven, so I had to bake them for a few minutes less than the recipe said.

These cupcakes are a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think they would be perfect with a less sweet frosting.

I was a bit hesitant to try these cupcakes because I'm not a big fan of green tea, but I'm glad I did! The flavor is very subtle and not overpowering at all.
