I am not the kind of mom that spoils her kids all day long. On the contrary, I believe that teaching them to be modest, using wisely the resources at hand and eliminating waste are just a few ways of building healthy behaviour. But kids also need constant proves of love in order to develop self trust and independence. So, besides a lot of hugs, kisses and "I love you"-s, sometimes I spoil them with zelidecious treats. Follow my lead and prepare my zelidecious Matcha Cheesecake. Could be a great breakfast or brunch but works just fine as a tasty dessert. There's no wrong timing for this one!

Ingredients for 8-10 servings:

• 400 gr. light cream cheese 
• 200 gr. double cream
• 200 ml. milk
• 50 gr. flour
• 100 gr. raw sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 1/2 tsp vanilla powder
• 2 tsp. matcha powder
• soft butter for greasing
• berries, powder sugar and maple syrup for serving

Method:

1. Preheat oven at 180'C.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the cream cheese, double cream, milk, flour, sugar, eggs, vanilla and matcha powder. 
3. Grease with butter a 23cm round baking tin and pour the cake batter.
4. Bake for 45-50 min (until you have a nice light brown colour).
5. Take out of the oven, leave to cool completely in the cake tin.
6. Remove from cake tin, top with berries and dust some powder sugar.
7. When serving drizzle a little maple syrup.
