Ingredients
  

  • 50 grams Sweet Rice Flour (Mochiko)
  • 100 ml Water
  • 50 grams Granulated Sugar
  • Food Coloring Optional
  • 4 scoops Ice Cream

Instructions
 

  • Make ice cream balls by scooping ice cream into a mold and placing them in the freezer to firm up.
  • In a bowl, weigh and mix water, mochiko flour, and granulated sugar until the mixture is smooth.
  • Cook the mixture in a frying pan over medium-low heat, stirring constantly for about 2 minutes, then let it cool.
  • On a cornstarch-dusted surface, roll out the mochi dough to a ¼ inch thickness and cut it into circles.
  • Place each ice cream ball onto a mochi circle, then carefully pull up the edges of the dough to seal around the ice cream.
  • Freeze the sealed mochi balls until firm. You can store them wrapped in plastic in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Notes

  • Use a cookie cutter for even sizes, work quickly to prevent melting, dust surfaces with cornstarch to prevent stickiness, and customize flavors to your liking.
