Author Notes

No-Bake Cheesecake is very popular in Japan and we call it as "Rare Cheesecake" (Not because it is unusual obviously)I have decided to add Matcha powder in it because I know Matcha and Cream Cheese always make a very good match. I was too lazy to bake a pie crust by myself and used the pre-maid one this time but you can of cource make your own pie crust if you are not too lazy! —Rie
