Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with butter or cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sweet rice flour, granulated sugar, and baking powder until well combined.
In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the whole milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until the wet ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to avoid lumps.
In a small bowl, mix the custard powder with the coconut milk until smooth and no lumps remain. Add this mixture to the batter and mix until fully incorporated.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the mochi from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the baking dish before slicing into squares or rectangles.
Optional: Sprinkle toasted shredded coconut on top for added flavor and texture before serving.
Serve at room temperature and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
