Mochi Ice Cream

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mochi Dough

    In a bowl, mix glutinous rice flour, sugar, and water until smooth. Pour the mixture into a microwave-safe dish.

  2. 2

    Cook the Mochi

    Cover the dish with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir, then microwave for another minute. Repeat until the mixture becomes translucent and sticky.

  3. 3

    Dust with Cornstarch

    Dust a clean surface with cornstarch. Transfer the mochi dough onto the surface and dust the top with more cornstarch.

  4. 4

    Shape the Mochi

    Roll out the mochi dough to about 1/4 inch thick. Cut into circles (about 3 inches in diameter).

  5. 5

    Fill with Ice Cream

    Place a scoop of ice cream in the center of each mochi circle. Gently fold the edges of the mochi over the ice cream and pinch to seal.

  6. 6

    Freeze the Mochi Ice Cream

    Place the filled mochi on a tray lined with parchment paper. Freeze for at least 2 hours until firm.
