Matcha Chocolate Chip Muffin
Craving for matcha goodies during midnight?! Let's have a late-night baking session to prepare several batches of matcha chocolate muffins! Matcha aroma filled the kitchen, as I pulled out several trays of muffins, freshly out from the oven. If you love matcha muffins as much as I do, check out my simple recipes below.
Ingredients
Muffins
- 2 Large eggs

- 200 g Cake flour
- 1.5 tsp Baking powder
- 3 tsp Double cream
- 2 tsp Matcha powder

- Prepare 3 separate bowls.
- First bowl: whisk 100g unsalted butter with 70g sugar.
- Second bowl: Add 50ml semi-skimmed milk with 3 tbsp double cream and stir thoroughly.
- Third bowl: Beat 2 eggs to combine the yolks and whites.
- Add the third bowl into the first bowl (several times) and whisk.
- Sift 200g cake flour, 2 tsp matcha powder, and 1.5 tsp baking powder on top of the batter (from Step 2) and mix gently.

- Cut 100g dark chocolate into 18-20 squares.
- Grease your muffin pan with olive oil.

- For each portion, add the batter onto the muffin cup three times, each time it should be filled with 3-5 chocolate squares (i.e. 3 layers of chocolate squares).
