  4. Add the sour cream and milk, blending until fully combined, about 1 minute.
  5. Sift in the matcha green tea powder and mix on low speed until evenly distributed.
  6. Crack in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, about 1 minute per egg.
  7. Gently fold in the vanilla extract and all-purpose flour until just combined.
  8. Pour the cheesecake batter into a greased 8-inch cake pan and smooth the surface evenly.
