Matcha Nuts Biscotti and Egg Yolk Sponge Cake




  I used the recipe from Nutty Slice Biscotti for this, added one tablespoon matcha powder and took away one tablespoon flour from the recipe.




Using double boiler method, melted a bar of white chocolate (cooking type), dipped it through..
Oh yes, you need an electrical slicer to slice it as thin as you can.




    Some of the ingredients I like to show you here...

Lots of nuts, make sure matcha is well mixed in the flour evenly...

Mix them..


Ready to be baked...
When it's done, cool completely, wrap and keep in fridge.

Some without the white chocolate coating...
