  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk melted butter and granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs, culinary matcha, and vanilla, and mix well.
  3. Add half of the milk, and mix until well combined. Fold in mochiko and fine sea salt until no dry patches remain.

  5. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 30 minutes.
  6. For the ganache, combine white chocolate chips and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in increments until melted and smooth. Stir in culinary matcha.
