Ingredients
Crust:
60g raw macadamia
50g almond flour
2 pitted dates
2 tbsp coconut oil
¼ teaspoon
Matcha Mousse:
1 ½ cups cashews (soaked overnight)
2 cans coconut cream
3-4 tbsp maple syrup (adjust to taste)
1 tbsp vanilla extract
5+ tbsp Suncore Foods® Midori Jade Matcha Powder
Directions
1. Crust — Line a baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside. Toss all the crust ingredients in a food processor. Pulse until it turns into a sticky dough. Transfer the mixture into the pan and press it to form a thin layer.
2. Mousse — Chuck drained cashews into a high-powered blender with the coconut milk, maple syrup and vanilla extract. Then blend until you get a silky-smooth mixture. Pour equal amounts into three separate bowls. In one bowl, add 1 tbsp Suncore Foods® Midori Jade Matcha Powder to achieve a pale matcha color. Whisk until fully combined. In the second bowl, add 2-3 tbsp (or more!) Suncore Foods® Midori Jade Matcha Powder to achieve a darker green. Whisk until fully combined. Pour the white mixture onto the prepared crust, and place in the freezer to set for 1 hour. Remove from the freezer and pour the pale green mixture onto the prepared crust, and place in the freezer to set for 1 hour. Remove from the freezer and pour the darker green mixture onto the prepared crust, and place in the freezer to set for 1 hour.
