    Hint: you can play around with the amount of matcha powder you want to add. I recommend adding the amount noted on the recipe card, and add more progressively if you wish.

    What to serve with this matcha mousse recipe

    This mousse is so delicious you can have it by itself. Dust some matcha powder on top to decorate.

    But you can also combine it with other yummy ingredients:

    • Shredded coconut and crushed nuts - also work fantastic

    Equipment

    All you need to make this easy matcha mousse is...

    • Food processor
    • Cup and tablespoon measurer
    • Rubber spatula
    • Bowl

    Storage

    Store in an airtight container or in a covered bowl in the fridge for up to 4 days.

    You can also freeze portions for up to 3 months. To make single serving portions, freeze it in a silicone muffin tray, so they're easy to remove.

    Top tip to make the best matcha mousse!

    Using thick coconut cream is a must. If the coconut cream is very liquid, the mousse will be too runny.

    Here you are some tips of how to find coconut cream in the supermarket:

    • Shake the can and see whether it makes noise as if there’d be liquid inside. If it sounds liquid, it won’t work! If it doesn’t make noise, it’s because it’s thick/solid.
    • Check the ingredients list. When a coconut cream has thickeners like guar gum, it’s very likely it’s going to be thick.

    Also, once you open the can, remove the cream without stirring the entire can. Sometimes is thick at the top, and liquid at the bottom.

    FAQ

    What goes well with matcha dessert?

    Fresh berries, chocolate, shredded coconut and crushed nuts work wonderful with this matcha dessert.

    What is matcha tea made of?

    Matcha is a really fine powder made of green tea leaves.

    Why is matcha so healthy?

    Matcha is super high in antioxidants, which help stabilize harmful free radicals, compounds that can damage cells and cause chronic disease.
