Matchamisu Rice Cake
Introducing Matchamisu—your new favorite no-bake, no-fuss, maximum-vibe dessert. With just 4 ingredients, this playful take on tiramisu swaps ladyfingers for rice cakes, cream for sweetened yogurt, and espresso for smooth, whisked matcha. It's light, layered, and surprisingly addictive.
Perfect for when you want dessert in 5 minutes flat—with all the green tea goodness and none of the fuss.
Ingredients (1–2 servings)
-
4 rice cakes (plain, lightly salted works too)
-
6 tbsp sweetened yogurt (Greek or plant-based)
-
Medium hot water (for whisking matcha)
Instructions
Step 1: Whisk the Matcha
In a bowl, sift your ceremonial matcha powder to avoid clumps.
Add a splash of hot water (about 70–80°C) and whisk until smooth and frothy using a bamboo whisk or milk frother.
Step 2: Soak the Rice Cakes
Quickly dip each rice cake into the whisked matcha—just a brief soak to keep them slightly soft but still structured.
Step 3: Layer It Up
In your serving dish (or just on a plate):
1️⃣ Start with a matcha-dipped rice cake
2️⃣ Add a generous spoonful of sweetened yogurt
3️⃣ Lightly dust with matcha powder
Repeat until all rice cakes are stacked—aim for 2 or 3 layers depending on your vibe.
Optional Upgrades
🍯 Drizzle of honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness
🍫 Grated white chocolate or coconut flakes on top
🧊 Chill for 10–15 minutes before serving for a firmer texture
Light, creamy, and full of vegetal matcha goodness, Matchamisu is a genius little dessert you’ll want on repeat. No oven, no fuss—just pure matcha joy in every bite.
