I DON'T LIKE MATCHA! 😂🍵 But everybody keeps telling me how good it is, so I decided to give it another chance… this time in a CAKE! 🍓🎂 Welcome back to another episode of **Bake With Moe!** Today we're making a Strawberry Matcha Cake from scratch, layered with homemade strawberry compote and finished with strawberry cream cheese frosting. Will this cake finally turn me into a matcha lover, or am I sticking to my coffee? 😂 Watch until the end for my honest reaction! ## 🍓 STRAWBERRY MATCHA CAKE RECIPE **White Chocolate Matcha Cake — One 8-inch Round Cake** **Ingredients:** - 70 g all-purpose flour - 10 g cornstarch - 20 g matcha powder - 200 g white chocolate, melted - 160 g unsalted butter, melted - 100 g egg yolks - 33 g honey - 153 g egg whites - 87 g granulated sugar - 1–2 pinches salt **Directions:** 1.

In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites with the sugar and salt until they form a stable, fluffy meringue. 7.

Cool completely before slicing horizontally into two layers. ## 🍓 HOMEMADE STRAWBERRY COMPOTE **Ingredients:** - 150 g fresh strawberries, finely chopped - 1 tablespoon granulated sugar - 1 teaspoon lemon juice **Directions:** 1.

Save a little compote to flavor your cream cheese frosting! ## 🍰 STRAWBERRY CREAM CHEESE FROSTING **Ingredients:** - 8 oz (226 g) cream cheese, softened - 113 g unsalted butter, softened - 120–180 g powdered sugar, adjusted to taste - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract - Pinch of salt - 1 tablespoon cooled strawberry compote **Directions:** 1.
