Matcha Bliss Balls

This is a sponsored post with Optimoz.

These Matcha Bliss Balls have to be one of the easiest treats that I have ever made.

I have been on a bit of Matcha dessert mission lately.

Previously, I was only using Matcha Green Tea to make Matcha Lattes. But I knew that you could do much more with this amazing product.

So, for my first dessert recipe using Matcha Green Tea, I made these Raw Matcha Brownies.

They were such a hit with everyone, that it got me thinking of what else I could make.

The Matcha Bliss Balls came about when I was making my Lamington Bliss Balls and I thought that adding Matcha Green Tea to the middle component would work really well.

These Matcha Bliss Balls have such a lovely colour and they taste pretty good. My husband Jason approves and I hope you do too!
