🛒 Ingredients (Serves 4)

For the Matcha Cake Batter:

  • ½ cup white chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp matcha powder (culinary grade)
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

For the Chocolate Ganache Center:

  • 2 oz semi-sweet or dark chocolate
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream

👩‍🍳 Instructions

🍫 Step 1: Make the Ganache (Center)

  1. Microwave chocolate and cream together in a bowl (30 seconds).
  2. Stir until smooth.
  3. Chill for 20–30 minutes until scoopable.
  4. Roll into 4 small balls and freeze for at least 15 minutes.

🍵 Step 2: Make the Matcha Cake Batter

  1. Melt white chocolate and butter in microwave (30 seconds). Stir to combine.
  2. In another bowl, whisk eggs and sugar until light.
  3. Add the chocolate mixture, then stir in matcha, flour, salt, and vanilla.
  4. Mix until smooth and green.

🔥 Step 3: Assemble and Bake

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Grease and lightly flour 4 ramekins.
  3. Pour batter halfway into each ramekin.
  4. Place 1 frozen ganache ball in the center. Cover with more batter.
  5. Bake for 12–14 minutes, until edges are set but center is soft.

🍽 Step 4: Serve

  1. Cool 2 minutes, then invert onto plates.
  2. Dust with powdered sugar, add berries, or serve with vanilla ice cream.

💡 Tips & Variations

  • Vegan option: Use vegan chocolate, almond milk, and flax eggs.
  • Extra matcha: Dust tops with matcha powder before serving.
  • No ramekins? Use muffin tins, but reduce bake time to 10–11 minutes.
  • Storage: Batter can be made ahead and chilled for 1 day.

🧊 Make-Ahead & Freezing

  • Make ahead: Prepare batter and freeze with ganache for up to 1 month.
  • Bake from frozen: Add 2–3 minutes extra to baking time.
  • Reheat: Not recommended — best served fresh for molten effect.

❓ FAQ

What does matcha taste like in cake?
It’s earthy, slightly bitter, and pairs beautifully with sweet chocolate.

Can I skip the ganache center?

How do I know when it’s done?
The edges should be firm, but the center will jiggle slightly when tapped.
