Matcha Almonds

Yesterday I passed by Itoen (New York flagship store of the Japanese tea company) & they had samples of Matcha Almonds. I got some & they are very yummy. The are roasted almonds covered in a very thin layer of chocolate & then have a fine layer of matcha on top. I am going to try and make some as the little bag they sell there which probably only has 15-20 nuts is $7 a pop. Seeing I could eat 2 bags in about 2 minutes this could be a very expensive new obsession.

Itoen also has a Japanese restuarant upstairs which I am keen to try - check out the menu, it looks great:
