Video Easy Mochi with Mascarpone Filling: No Special Tools Needed

Try this delightful recipe for a popular Japanese dessert, Moti, that I absolutely adore. Making these sweet treats involves a wheat-based glutinous rice flour, powdered sugar for sweetness, any type of starch, and cocoa to give it that irresistible chocolatey flavor. Incorporate milk and vegetable oil into the dry mixture to create a dough similar to pancake batter, just slightly thicker. Cook this mixture in a pan until it begins to thicken and can be formed into a ball. Once done, chill the dough in the fridge. For the creamy filling, simply mix mascarpone or cottage cheese with creamy coconut milk, creating a rich and decadent center. To assemble, divide the cooled dough into pieces, flatten each without making it too thin, and then wrap around the creamy filling. Freeze for about 30 minutes before indulging. This recipe results in heavenly, chocolate-flavored Moti with a creamy center, perfect for sharing or treating yourself.
