The most delicious confection ever. Mochi or sweet rice cakes are very popular in Japan, I find Mochi very yummy but it's even better in icecream form. It's fluffy sweet, soft dough filled with fruity icecream/ dusted with powder in an circular form. It's really fun to eat and very satisfying as well, you should really try this, I ate eight of them last night, and they never get old. I figured since i'm looking up recipes to make them at home myself, i might as well post them on here. Enjoy.


Things you will need:

• 10 scoops ice cream (flavor of your choice)
• 1 cup glutinous-rice flour (mochiko)
• 3/4 cup water
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 tsp. vanilla
• Corn flour, for dusting
• Glass bowl
• Mixing spoon
• Plastic wrap
• Cutting board
• Airtight container

(1)Soften the ice cream, scoop into 10 round balls, and refreeze until hard.
(2)Combine glutinous rice flour and water in a glass bowl. Mix well to paste, then add sugar and vanilla, mix until dissolved.
(3)Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 2 minutes. It will be half cooked. Remove and stir well while it's hot.
