Matcha Tiramisu is the distant Japanese cousin of the Italian Tiramisu. The bittersweet from the matcha pairs extremely well with the creamy and rich mascarpone which makes it a perfect desserts. This recipe only requires 5 ingredients and it is super easy to put together, the only downside is I strongly recommend letting it chill in the fridge overnight before serving which is difficult but I promise it is worth it! đ”
