Ingredients
- 400 grams sweet rice flour (mochiko)
- 300 grams granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 115 grams unsalted butter, melted
- 4 large eggs
- 400 milliliters coconut milk
- 240 milliliters whole milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan thoroughly with butter or non-stick spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweet rice flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, coconut milk, whole milk, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Step 4
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to ensure a smooth batter with no lumps.
Step 5
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and use a spatula to smooth the surface evenly.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 7
Remove the pan from the oven and let the butter mochi cool completely in the pan on a wire rack for at least 1 hour.
Step 8
Once cooled, cut the butter mochi into squares or rectangles and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
