A delightful twist on the classic Italian dessert, these Matcha Tiramisu Cups blend the earthy richness of matcha with the creamy indulgence of traditional tiramisu, served in individual portions for convenience and elegance.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp matcha powder (plus extra for dusting)
  • 3/4 cup hot water
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 12–16 ladyfinger biscuits
  • Optional: white chocolate shavings or sweet red bean paste for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
  2. Add mascarpone, sugar, and vanilla extract to the whipped cream and continue beating until well combined and smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, dissolve 1 tbsp of matcha powder in hot water. Stir in honey or maple syrup if using. Let cool slightly.
  4. Dip each ladyfinger quickly into the matcha mixture and layer them into the bottom of serving cups.
  5. Spoon a layer of the mascarpone cream mixture over the soaked ladyfingers.
  6. Repeat layers, ending with a layer of mascarpone cream on top.
  7. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until set.
  8. Before serving, sift additional matcha powder on top and garnish as desired.

  • Don’t oversoak the ladyfingers to avoid soggy texture.
  • Can be made a day ahead for better flavor development.
