Sweet Mochi cookies

Mochi is a Japanese sticky rice cake used in delicious and sweet dishes. Mochi is usually made from sweet rice (also called Mochi rice) cooked and peeled until it becomes a paste that is very sticky and smooth and then formed into cakes or blocks. It is often eaten in New Year’s Ozone or baked with soy sauce. Mochi made from cooked sweet rice doesn’t stay fresh and soft too much, and usually needs to be cooked so it can be eaten again. However, here we made Sweet Mochi using Mochiko (sweet rice flour) and a lot of sugar, and it’s flexible for a long time so you can shape it the way you want for desserts. We used Mochiko which is basically powdered sweet rice. It becomes Mochi by adding water and steaming. Because it is a powder, it is easier to have Mochiko in your pantry longer and it is much easier to use to make rice mochi. Mochi from Mochiko may seem softer than traditional Mochi, but it remains soft from the addition of sugar. It has a lot of sugar, and it’s very sweet.

Preparation steps

  • 1. Mix Mochiko and water in a glass jar (or other heat) and mix well. Add more water if too dry, 1 tbsp at a time.
  • 2. Steam Mochiko dough (leave dough in a bowl) in a steamer for 20 minutes.
  • 3. Transfer Steamed Mochi to a pan and cook over medium and medium low heat with 1/3 sugar (2/3 cup). When the sugar is completely dissolved, add another 1/3 of the sugar and mix well. Add the last of the sugar and cook a little more until the sugar has dissolved. Take time to melt the sugar, but be careful not to burn it.
  • 4. Remove the hot Mochi from the pot to the pot that has been washed with the cornstarch powder. Design as you wish.

Serving

Serve as you wish. Great for serving guests! (^ _ ^) d * WARNING: Very Sticky!
