We’ll take tiramisu in any form! While we love the classic coffee version, this matcha version swaps out coffee and chocolate for matcha powder. The matcha-soaked ladyfingers, creamy mascarpone layer, and slightly bitter matcha powder create a dessert that’s just like the classic but with a matcha twist. These matcha tiramisu cups are the perfect no-bake treat. They’re creamy, simple, and the matcha gives them an incredible flavor and beautiful pale green color.

Instructions
**Matcha Dipping:**
- Combine the water, sugar, and matcha for the dipping. Set aside and allow to cool.
**Matcha Cream:**
- Beat egg yolks with 2 tablespoons of sugar until very pale yellow.
- Beat egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Sift in 2 teaspoons of matcha powder and whisk until combined.
- Fold the egg mixtures together until combined. Then fold in mascarpone cheese and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Set aside.
**Whipped Cream:**
- Add the vanilla and whipping cream to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (or use a hand mixer in a medium bowl). Whisk until soft peaks form. Set aside.
**Assembly:**
- In 4-6 glasses, put a thin layer of matcha cream on the bottom.
- Determine if the ladyfingers need to be broken in half to fit in your glass. Break them if needed.
- Dip the ladyfingers in the matcha dip, just until coated, and then remove them. Do not let them soak.
- Place the dipped ladyfingers over the layer of matcha cream. Add another layer of matcha cream and a layer of whipped cream. Top with a dusting of matcha powder (use a sifter to dust).
- Add another layer of soaked ladyfingers and repeat the process: top with matcha cream, whipped cream, and matcha powder.
- Refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours.
