Cake with green matcha tea and white chocolate

The recipe for the matcha tea cake comes from the book "Tokyo. Iconic Recipes" by Maori Murota. According to the recipe for the book, the weight of individual ingredients (flour, sugar and butter) should be equal to the weight of 3 eggs (without shells). 3 "L" eggs weigh about 150 g, so add 150 g of sugar, 150 g of flour, 150 g of butter.

There has been some change to my version of the recipe. During the preparation of the cake, it turned out that I ran out of butter. I decided to add another fat, namely olive oil. I thought that the characteristic taste of the oil might intriguingly blend in with matcha tea. I also cut down on the amount of sugar. Everyone liked the cake very much. When I prepared the original cake the next day, it was also delicious, but the less sweeter version with the addition of olive oil won.

Experiment, I also recommend trying the dark chocolate version instead of the white one.
