Matcha & Azuki Roll Cake

Preheat oven to 200°C. Line the base and sides of a Swiss Roll Pan with baking paper. *Note: Today I used 27cm x 18cm square cake tin for thicker cake.

Use an electric mixer to whisk Eggs and Sugar and make the mixture very thick and pale colour. Add Milk and Butter, mix to combine, the volume will be slightly reduced but do not worry, sift in Flour and Matcha Powder, and gently combine.

Pour into the prepared pan and smooth the surface. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the surface is dry to the touch.

Place the sponge onto a clean work surface and peel the baking paper, but do not remove the paper. Spread the ‘Azuki’ Paste over the sponge, whichever side you prefer, then roll sponge to enclose using the paper.

In a small bowl, combine Icing Sugar and Matcha Powder, sprinkle the mixture over the cake.
