Ingredients

2 (8 ounce) containers fat-free cream cheese, softened
0.75 cup white sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon green tea powder
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker pie crust

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking.
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Incorporate eggs, green tea powder, and vanilla extract until the mixture is light and creamy; then, pour it into the prepared crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the center of the cheesecake jiggles slightly when gently shaken. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
