How to Make Fluffy Mochi Cream

A plate of soft and chewy mochi cream with creamy filling, dusted with cornstarch and surrounded by fresh fruits.

This mochi cream recipe features a soft and chewy rice flour dough enveloping a rich and creamy filling. The contrast between the slightly sticky outer layer and the smooth inner filling creates a delightful taste experience that will satisfy your sweet cravings.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup glutinous rice flour (mochi flour)
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (for dusting)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (for filling)
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (for sweetening the cream)
  • Flavorings for the cream (e.g., vanilla extract, fruit puree, or cocoa powder)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and any desired flavorings until soft peaks form. Set aside in the fridge to chill.
  2. Make the Mochi Dough: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine glutinous rice flour, sugar, and water. Mix until smooth.
  3. Cook the Mochi: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir, then microwave for an additional minute. Repeat for a total of 3 minutes, stirring in between until the dough is slightly translucent.
  4. Shape the Mochi: Dust a clean surface with cornstarch. Transfer the mochi dough to the surface and let it cool slightly. Divide the dough into small portions and flatten each piece into a circle.
  5. Fill the Mochi: Place a small dollop of the whipped cream filling in the center of each mochi circle. Gently fold the edges of the mochi over the filling and pinch to seal.
  6. Chill and Serve: Place the filled mochi cream in the fridge for about 30 minutes to firm up. Enjoy your homemade mochi cream as a delightful treat!
