Ingredients 

  • 3 tablespoons toasted quinoa or tiny puffed quinoa
  • 14 oz baking white chocolate, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon matcha powder, sifted

Instructions

  • Toast the quinoa. Start by heating a wide pan over medium-high heat until hot. Then, pour in the quinoa and shake the pan constantly to avoid the quinoa burning. It should make a popping noise. Let it pop for 1-2 minutes, turn the heat off, and transfer to a bowl. I like to make extra to use it as a salad topping!
  • Melt the white chocolate. In a small bowl, melt ¾ of the white chocolate in 1 minute increments in the microwave. Stir between each increment until about ¼ of the chocolate remains unmelted. Then stir the rest to melt the chocolate. Since we don't fully temper this recipe, it may melt at room temperature so keep your chocolate bark refrigerated.
  • Make the white chocolate bark. Once the white chocolate bark is melted, on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, spread it evenly -it doesn't have to take up the full tray, just keep it the thickness you'd prefer. Then, sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of the toasted quinoa on the bark. Set aside.
  • Make the matcha white chocolate. Melt the remaining ¼ of the white chocolate in a bowl. Once melted, sift in the match and mix it well. Dollop the matcha white chocolate onto the bark. Then take a tooth pick or knife and swirl it to create the design. you can sprinkle additional quinoa on top for an extra crunch if you'd like.
  • Refrigerate. Refrigerate for about 1 hour or freeze for about 30 minutes until hardened fully. Finally, remove from the pan and break it into uneven pieces. Enjoy! If the chocolate was tempered correctly, it will stay at room temperature. If not, it's best to refrigerate your white chocolate bark.
