ingredients

  • 225g Unsalted butter
  • 200g Caster Sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • teaspoon vanilla extract
  • teaspoon sea salt
  • 225g self raising flour
  • 1/4 cocoa powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Matcha and Beyond culinary matcha powder or matcha powder of choice
  • 1 Dapaah Milk Chocolate

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 180oc/Gas 4. Lightly grease a loaf pan and line with greaseproof paper

  • Step 2

    Beat butter and sugar until very light and fluffy. Add eggs in one at a time, beating until fully incorporated after each. Beat in vanilla and salt.

  • Step 3

    Fold in flour, beating until fully combined. Transfer half the batter to a bowl and stir in cocoa. Add matcha to the remaining batter and beat until fully combined.

  • Step 4

    Spoon 2 tablespoons of matcha batter into one corner of the loaf pan. Spoon 2 tablespoons of chocolate batter alongside. Repeat the procedure creating a checkerboard pattern. Swirl the mixture a couple of times using a butter knife (don’t swirl too much) bake for about 50 mins in the middle of the oven. Insert a toothpick into the centre and if it comes out clean it is done.

  • Step 5

    Leave in the tin until completely cool for about 10 mins then remove

  • Step 6

    Melt milk chocolate in a heatproof bowl in a pan until melted and serve in a jar and pour on the cake! Enjoy!
