Yield Makes 12 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup cake flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
5 teaspoons matcha, plus more for garnish
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
3/4 cup sugar
1 large egg
1/2 cup milk, room temperature
Green Tea Ganache
Green Tea Buttercream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. In a small bowl, sift together flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and matcha.
  • In an electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream together butter and sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Add egg and mix on medium until combined, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture and then milk, mixing until just combined.
  • Divide batter evenly among lined cups, filling each about halfway. Bake, rotating halfway through, until cupcakes spring back to touch and a cake tester inserted in centers comes out clean, about 16 minutes. Let cool in tin 5 minutes, then transfer cupcakes to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Fill a pastry bag fitted with a small round tip (Ateco #801) with green tea ganache. Pipe about 1 tablespoon ganache into center of each cupcake. (Reserve leftover ganache to decorate cupcakes.) Fill another pastry bag fitted with a large plain-round tip (Ateco #809) with green tea buttercream. Pipe a dollop of buttercream onto top of each cupcake. Sift a small amount of matcha onto half of each cake. Pipe a squiggle on each cupcake using reserved ganache. Store cupcakes overnight in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerated for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature before serving.

I'll have to ask my friend to make these cupcakes for me. I don't think I'm brave enough to try it myself.

I'm not sure about these cupcakes. I've never had green tea cupcakes before.

These cupcakes look a bit too sweet for my taste, but they might be good for a special occasion.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but these cupcakes didn't turn out at all. I followed the recipe carefully, but they just didn't work.

These cupcakes were a complete disaster! They didn't rise properly and they tasted terrible.

These cupcakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more milk or yogurt next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cupcakes didn't turn out as green as the ones in the picture. Maybe I didn't use enough matcha powder?

These cupcakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall they were still pretty good.

I'm not a big fan of green tea, but these cupcakes were surprisingly delicious. The matcha powder gave them a unique and earthy flavor that I really enjoyed.
