Ingredients

7 pieces (5.9cm diameter x 4.5cm height mold)

CO-OP organic sencha green tea leaves from Shizuoka Prefecture – about 35g

(7 g of tea leaves is equivalent to 2 or 3 cups of tea made with 1 cup of hot water.)

7g tea leaves make 35g tea husks.

CO-OP pancake mix – 200g

Butter (salt free) – 50g

Processed cheese – 70g

Sugar: 20g

Egg: 1 egg

Milk: 1/2 cup

Put the butter in a heatproof container and heat in a microwave oven at 500W (600W) for about 40 seconds to melt it.
Mix sugar, egg and milk in a bowl and add CO-OP pancake mix.
When the mixture is no longer powdery, add butter and stir until smooth.
Add the tea leaves to the mixture and mix until evenly combined. Put the mixture into the mold and mix until smooth.
Put 1.5cm cubes of processed cheese on top.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180℃ for about 20 minutes. (The dough should not stick to the skewer when it is pierced with a bamboo skewer).
