I searched the Internet for recipes for matcha brownies...
and I found a few recipes to play with. I picked out 3 recipes and baked all 3 to see which one I liked the most and to be honest.... they all tasted the same even though the recipes were different. The only difference was the texture. One recipe called for butter the other did not. One was gooey one was not, and one was to dry. So.... I took the middle road and leveled up the amounts to match my taste buds for the day and baked a 4th batch of matcha brownies that fit my likings. lol
It's a good thing I had a party I was supplying brownies for, or I would of ate all of these. Especially since they had white chocolate and macadamia nuts in them. I have a weakness for white chocolate and macadamia nuts in anything when baked together.
Now I know someone is going to ask me what matcha is ~
Matcha is finely ground powder of specially grown and processed green tea leaves. That's why the powder is green, and you can find it in all the grocery stores. 🛒 ❤ ► Matcha Powder / https://amzn.to/3yhqcgN
