Ingredients:
For the Crust:
- 1 1/2 cups shredded coconut (unsweetened)
- 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling:
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 2 tbsp matcha powder (high quality)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
For the Topping:
- Matcha powder for dusting
- White chocolate shavings (optional)
- Toasted coconut flakes
Instructions:
- Prepare the Crust:
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, graham cracker crumbs, and melted butter until evenly mixed. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a springform pan to form the crust. Place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to set. - Make the Filling:
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the matcha powder, vanilla extract, and lemon juice, and continue mixing until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the matcha cream cheese mixture. - Assemble the Cheesecake:
Spread the matcha cheesecake filling evenly over the coconut crust. Smooth the top with a spatula, cover the pan, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, for the best texture and flavor. - Add the Toppings:
Before serving, dust the top of the cheesecake with extra matcha powder for a beautiful green hue. Sprinkle toasted coconut flakes and white chocolate shavings for an elegant finish.
Pro Tip:
For an extra indulgent touch, drizzle coconut cream on top and garnish with fresh berries like strawberries or raspberries to add a pop of color and complement the matcha’s flavor. 🥥🍓
