    I'm sure you've tried a matcha latte, but have you ever mixed matcha into your desserts? Believe it or not, you can add this green tea powder to nearly anything. It pairs well inside cookies, cupcakes, pancakes, and - you guessed it - fudge!

    This white chocolate fudge is made with just 5 ingredients. It's super quick, easy to make, and comes together in about 10 minutes. You'll just have to wait a couple hours for it to set in the refrigerator. Pro tip: make it at nighttime so it can set while you sleep.

    With St. Patrick's Day on the horizon, you can impress all of your friends with this festive green dessert. Keep it simple or add toppings, like chocolate chips, pistachios, and sprinkles. If you love fudge, you'll also enjoy my S'mores Fudge!

    What is vegan matcha fudge made of?

    • White chocolate chips: In order to create a bright green appearance, you must use white chocolate chips for this recipe. Do not use milk or dark chocolate chips.
    • Sweetened condensed coconut milk: This ingredient is made from coconut milk and sugar. It's a dairy-free alternative to sweetened condensed milk. Similarly to sweetened condensed milk, it has a super sweet, creamy, and thick consistency.
    • Matcha powder: This finely ground powder is made from green tea leaves. It has several health benefits and a beautiful green appearance.
    • Vanilla extract: A dash of vanilla extract enhances the flavor.
    • Salt: A pinch of salt balances the sweetness.

    How to make matcha fudge with white chocolate chips

    For the full ingredient measurements and step-by-step instructions, scroll down to view the recipe card at the bottom of the page.

    First, line a square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some paper hanging over the edges. This will prevent the fudge from sticking to the pan.

    In a large bowl, add the white chocolate chips. Shake the cans of sweetened condensed coconut milk. Pour coconut milk over the white chocolate chips.

    Then, microwave it for 90 seconds. Add matcha powder, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk together to evenly combine the ingredients.

    Next, pour the matcha fudge into the baking dish. Spread evenly across the bottom of the dish. If desired, decorate with toppings.

    After, chill fudge in the freezer for 2 hours or until firm. Lift parchment paper out of the pan to easily remove the fudge. Allow it to thaw for a few minutes before slicing into 16 bars. Enjoy!

    Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

    Does chocolate go well with matcha?

    Yes, absolutely! Matcha powder pairs well with both chocolate and white chocolate. For this recipe, we are using the white variety in order to keep the vibrant green appearance.

    Does matcha taste good with condensed milk?

    Yes, you can make a matcha latte with condensed milk. If you are dairy-free, be sure to use sweetened condensed coconut milk instead. This recipe uses this pairing, but it creates fudge instead of a latte!

    What goes well with matcha dessert?

    Matcha pairs well with vanilla, white chocolate, milk chocolate, coconut, and citrus.

    What can I do with matcha powder?

    The options are endless! You can create matcha-flavored lattes, smoothies, cookies, pancakes, baked goods, and so much more.

    How to store matcha fudge

    Store this dairy-free fudge inside a tightly sealed container. Keep it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or store inside the freezer for up to 3 months. If frozen, allow it to thaw for a few minutes before enjoying.

      Is there a certain brand of matcha you recommend? I see there’s ceremonial grade and culinary grade.

        Hi Annie! Ceremonial grade is the highest quality and has the purest flavor. However, it is more expensive than culinary grade. Since this recipe is sweetened with the condensed coconut milk and white chocolate, it isn't necessary to use ceremonial grade. Culinary works just fine! 🙂
