Details: Classic local snack popular at church gatherings, potlucks, and questionable house parties. This mochi is so heavy, it uses an entire whopping brick of butter. Best to consume if you seem particularly emaciated. Makes enough to feed an army.
Cost: About $9-$10
Servings: 12
Time: 1 hour 5 minutes
Difficulty: Easy. Just mix the batter and pop it into the oven.
Ingredients:
16 oz. mochiko (rice flour)
2 cups sugar
8 Tbsp. melted unsalted butter
1 tsp. baking powder
3 cups milk (it called for whole, but guilt made me use 1%)
5 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup sweetened coconut flakes
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees while you mix your batter. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking pan, and heat the butter in the microwave so it's nice and goopy. Grab two large bowls to keep the wet ingredients away from the dry. Mix the milk, vanilla, and eggs in one bowl, and the sugar, rice flour, and baking powder in the other. Then combine the ingredients of both bowls, and stir in the butter.
Once your batter is smooth, pour everything into the baking pan and let it bake for an hour. Edges should be golden brown. Let cool, cut and serve. (Don't put it in a refrigerator right away because it will sweat.)
Happy snarfing!
