Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp matcha powder
  • 1.5 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup butter

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, mix 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs with 0.5 cup melted butter until evenly moistened. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, beat 8 oz softened cream cheese with 0.5 cup sugar and 1 tbsp matcha powder until smooth and no lumps remain.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream with the remaining 1 tbsp matcha powder until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.

  4. 4

    Pour the filling over the crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, until set and firm to the touch.

  5. 5

    Before serving, top with sliced fresh mango and drizzle with a little extra matcha mixed with cream, if desired.
