If you are planning on celebrating Valentine's Day at home this year (whether you are coupled up or not), this recipe for matcha tiramisu is a delicious way to celebrate. Ideal for treating yourself or your significant other, the dessert for two was created by Adrianna Adarme of the food blog A Cozy Kitchen.
Described as "the perfect mix of matcha and sweet," the green tea-infused tiramisus also balance bitter and sweet flavor. Instead of having a coffee taste, the matcha tiramisu has yummy matcha powder, homemade mascarpone filling, lady fingers, and powdered sugar. The lady fingers, which can be either store-bought or made from scratch, are also dipped in matcha green tea sweetened with honey.
