matcha cream

In response to my previous post on the TKO's and my homemade matcha (green tea) cream filling, I've had a couple requests for the recipe. It's very simple.

Matcha Cream Filling:
1/2 cup heavy cream
8 oz. white chocolate, chopped
1 1/2 tsp matcha powder

1. For the Filling: In a small pan, bring the cream to a boil. Remove from heat and add the chocolate. Let
stand for 1 minute, then whisk to melt the chocolate until smooth. Transfer to a small bowl, and let stand for 6 hours to thicken up.

2. Stir in the matcha powder under there are no more streaks, and everything is well blended.

Doesn't matcha make everything (well, baked goods!) taste better??

Yes matcha is great. Wouldnt it be better to mix in the matcha with the cream at its boiling so that it would somewhat brew the matcha at the same time?
