Despite its name and the white chocolate in its ingredients, this dessert is green. This is thanks to matcha green tea, which also imparts a complex flavor with a bitterness reminiscent of dark chocolate. The blondie is baked whole and immediately sprinkled with chopped white chocolate, which begins to melt and spread evenly across the surface. Cut the cake into squares and serve. Blondies keep well at room temperature in a tightly sealed container for up to 5 days.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 22 x 32 cm (9 x 13 in) metal baking pan, then line the bottom and sides with parchment paper; butter the parchment paper. Dust the inside of the pan with flour and shake off any excess.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, microwave the butter until melted, about 1.5 minutes. Add two-thirds of the white chocolate, then shake the bowl to coat the butter and let it sit for 1 minute. Starting in the center of the bowl, stir the butter and white chocolate until smooth. Add the matcha powder and stir until smooth.
- In another large bowl, vigorously whisk together the sugar, vanilla extract, salt, and eggs until smooth, light, and foamy, about 30 seconds. Add the matcha mixture to the bowl and whisk until smooth. Add the flour and fold in with a rubber spatula until just incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spread it out evenly, and smooth the surface. Bake until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted halfway between the center and edges comes out clean, about 35 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle the remaining 110g of white chocolate evenly over the cake; let it sit for 1 minute. Then, using a butter knife or offset spatula, spread the chocolate evenly, creating swirls and peaks.
- Let the cake cool completely, then pull the parchment paper out of the pan. Transfer the blondie to a cutting board. Cut into 24 squares and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container, in a single layer, for up to 5 days..
