Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Guamanian Coconut Mochi.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C). While the oven warms up, grab a 9x13-inch glass baking dish and give it a light spray with cooking spray to ensure your mochi comes out easily later on.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, sift together the sweet rice flour, sugar, and baking soda. This step not only combines the ingredients but also adds a bit of air, making your mochi delightfully fluffy.
Step 3
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, evaporated milk, coconut milk, and vanilla extract until everything is well blended. The mixture should be smooth and creamy, inviting you to dive in!
Step 4
Now, gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Add the melted butter and mix until everything is just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine!
Step 5
Pour this luscious batter into your prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Pop it into the preheated oven and let it bake for about 30 minutes. The aroma will fill your kitchen, making it hard to wait!
Step 6
Once baked, allow the mochi to cool completely in the dish. This is the hardest part, but trust us, it’s worth it! After cooling, cut the mochi into small squares, about 1 1/2 inches each. Enjoy the chewy, sweet squares of goodness!
How to Serve
Serve these delightful mochi squares as a sweet snack or dessert. They pair wonderfully with a cup of tea or coffee, making them perfect for afternoon gatherings or as a unique treat at parties.
How to Store
Store any leftover mochi in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you want to keep them longer, you can refrigerate them, but be sure to let them come to room temperature before serving for the best texture.
