Matchamisu = Matcha (Green Tea) Tiramisu

My baking guru, Queenie, came up with the name Matchamisu and the recipe. It’s utterly brilliant.

She took a classic Italian dessert, the tiramisu, and gave it a green tea spin by replacing espresspo with matcha green tea. Even better, they’re adorable since each one is a mini portion.

Get a little adventurous and try swapping out the espresso like we did here with matcha or any fruit like this rhubarb tiramisu recipe.

Layer upon layer of matcha! It’s super fluffy and rich with alternating layers of matcha cream and matcha sponge cake.

Beware, if you’re sensitive to caffeine, you may want to limit yourself to just one of these decadent tiny treats.
