Ingredients
- 1 cup Sweet rice flour also known as 'mochiko'
- 3/4 tsp Matcha green tea powder
- 1 cup Water
- 1/4 cup Granulated sugar
- ¼ cup Cornstarch for rolling out the dough
- 1/2 bar White Chocolate (may not need it all) use white chocolate Hersey kisses or small squares of white chocolate bar for stuffing
Instructions
- Mix sweet rice flour and green tea powder thoroughly in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir in water, then sugar. Mix until smooth. Cover bowl with plastic wrap.
- Cook in the microwave for 3 minutes. Then remove the plastic wrap. The consistency will be almost rubbery.
- Dust work surface with cornstarch. While the mochi is still hot from the microwave, begin rolling balls the size of about 2 tablespoons. Flatten the mochi ball and place white chocolate in the center.
- Pinch the mochi over chocolate to seal. Sprinkle with a dusting of sifted powdered sugar and place mochi seam side down in a paper muffin liner to prevent sticking. Let cool before serving.
