Pristine, powdery white; verdant green, and shades of scarlet are the universal Christmas palette. In the peak of greige, foggy Delhi winters, itโ€™s this burst of colors that become my savior.  So, I thought, why not cook up a confection that brings these hues to life?

Hark, the herald the quintessential Christmassy treat is here! The matcha white chocolate bark.

How to Make Matcha White Chocolate Bark?

If youโ€™ve not made chocolate bark before, then believe me youโ€™re missing out on some serious goodness. To make it, you can use either a bar or chips of white chocolate, as long as itโ€™s the good stuff.

The recipe has three ingredients. Thatโ€™s it. And itโ€™s the season for splurging, so reach for the top-shelf.  The better the quality, the more deliciousness you get to enjoy. Plus, compound white chocolates are just buckets of sugar with no real cocoa butter (the secret stuff that makes chocolate appetizing miracles).

How To Melt Chocolate Perfectly?

Take a saucepan of hot water; and in it, place a large-ish heatproof bowl. Put your white chocolate in the bowl and stir till it melts into a shiny and smooth puddle.

I prefer the double boiler method of melting white chocolate because it allows me greater control. The chance of the chocolate seizing or burning when double boiling is next to nil. But by all means use the microwave method, if you prefer.

Adding The Matcha To The Chocolate

From the bowl of the melted white chocolate spoon out 2 to 3 tablespoons worth into a smaller dish. Mix the matcha powder into this small portion. Whisk it well, since you donโ€™t want any lumps.

Spread the rest of the melted white chocolate on a tray lined with parchment. After youโ€™ve made an even layer, simply drop the matcha chocolate onto it. To get those pretty swirls, use a toothpick or a pointed knife.

The trick to creating the marble pattern is to add the matcha mixture with a light hand. Too much of it on the gooey white chocolate and the stunning swirls fade away.

Decorating The Matcha Bark

Now comes the awesome sauce part of matcha white chocolate bar โ€“ the orange zest. Freshly grate some orange peel atop the spread chocolate layer. While I always encourage experimenting with recipes, this is one step you cannot forgo. The essential oils of the zest give the best flavor to the confection that you can savor for hours.

Top the chocolate with goji berries. They pair beautifully with the full-bodied, complex, and rich taste of matcha powder and the silky sweetness of the white chocolate. Refrigerate for about two hours and once the chocolate is set, break it into shards and indulge!

A Few More Chocolate Bar Ideas

The matcha white chocolate bar is a scrumptious treat for any day of the year, but for Christmas, it is a must. Plus, they are ridiculously easy to make. Even the most culinarily challenged people can master them.

If white chocolate is not your cup of matcha (excuse the pun), then try the dark chocolate bar.

A quick note before I bid you Merry Christmas, you can dress white chocolate bars with any topping. So, go forth and customize. I used the wonderful, tangy goji berries but cranberries, nuts, seeds, and even coconut flakes work excellently.

Half the joy of cooking is sharing it with others. Thatโ€™s why Iโ€™m always eager to hear from you. So go right ahead & drop a comment or reach out on Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube, or Facebook. I hope you love this matcha white chocolate bark as much as we do!
