Here is a recipe that I've made several times and our whole family just loves it. I had to make some changes because I'm allergic to green tea. I made other changes, well, just because.

I love this recipe as is. It’s one of our family’s favorite recipes and I make it often. I have made some minor changes that you might like:
1. I found out that I’m mildly allergic to green tea. The flavor us great, but I start getting wheezy when I drink it. I’ve changed out the syrup to honey with a little oj, or lemon juice and it’s delicious too.
2. I only have one mixing bowl for my mixer, so I whip up the egg whites first and transfer them to another bowl. This makes it easier to clean out the bowl for the rest of the batter.
3. I dust the pan with a little almond flour, which gives the cake a slightly toasted taste.
4. After I glaze the cake, I top it with freshly toasted sliced almonds and a light dusting of powdered sugar.
