white chocolate matcha bark

is anyone out there as matcha obsessed as i am?!

This recipe is inspired by my favorite matcha bar in nyc, Chalait, they have a really good matcha bark. White chocolate is quite sweet and matcha’s earthy flavor is the perfect companion. What I love about this recipe is that its super easy to make and even easier to customize. Feel free to add whatever toppings you love! Give this one a shot for yourself as a treat or as a fun gift for a loved one!
