Matcha Chocolate Bark
INGREDIENTS
- Matcha Chocolate
- • 1 ½ cup high quality white chocolate grated
- • 2 tsp Aiya Culinary Grade Matcha
- Toppings
- • ¼ cup crushed Pistachios
- • ¼ cup sliced almonds
- • ¼ cup goji berries
- • 2 Tbsps chopped dried apricots
- • 2 Tbsps dried wild blueberries
- • ¼ cup chia seeds
DIRECTIONS
- 1. Add the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 45 seconds and whisk it until smooth. Alternatively, you can place the white chocolate bowl over a larger bowl with boiling water and whisk it until it melts completely.
- 2. Add the Aiya Matcha green tea powder to the melted white chocolate and mix it in until all blended.
- 3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 4. Take a Tbsp measuring spoon and spoon out a Tbsp at a time on to the parchment paper spacing the Tbsps half an inch apart.
- 5. The Matcha chocolate will spread out into a circular shape about an inch and a half in diameter. You can use the back of the Tbsp to even out the tops or edges if you feel you need to.
- 6. Start sprinkling the superfood toppings over the smooth Matcha chocolate rounds and let the chocolate set for 30 mins at room temperature of 5 mins in the fridge.
- 7. Serve the Matcha chocolate barks and enjoy! Or stack them up in a bag for gifts.
TIPS:
1. For a faster setting, you can chill your chocolate bark in the fridge.
2. Add any chopped nuts or fruit on top. Dried blueberries, candied ginger or freeze-dried strawberries also taste delicious.
3. For the superfood version, stick to chia seeds and goji berries and enjoy the added benefits of antioxidants and omega-3.
4. The Matcha Chocolate barks can be kept in the fridge in an airtight sealed container lined with parchment paper for a month and a half, or at room temperature for three weeks for optimal taste and freshness of the toppings.
