Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Glutinous rice flour (mochiko)
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 100 grams Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 400 milliliters Coconut milk
- 150 milliliters Whole milk
- 2 pieces Eggs, large
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease a 9x13 inch (23x33 cm) baking dish. Alternatively, line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the glutinous rice flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, coconut milk, whole milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and the eggs are fully incorporated.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring continuously with a whisk or spatula to form a smooth, lump-free batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth out the surface with a spatula to ensure an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the mochi cake from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares or rectangles.
Serve at room temperature. Enjoy on its own or with a cup of tea or coffee!
