Ingredients
- 3 ½ tablespoons glutinous rice flour (mochiko flour or sweet rice flour)
- ⅓ cup corn starch (corn flour)
- 2 ½ tablespoons white sugar
- 1 teaspoon cocoa powder plus extra to garnish, unsweetened
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup chocolate chips 80 grams, 2.82 ounces
- ½ cup milk room temperature
- ½ cup heavy whipping cream room temperature
Instructions
- In a non-stick saucepan over low to medium heat, add the glutinous rice flour, corn starch, white sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, salt, and chocolate chips. Mix until well combined and the chocolate is melted.*
- Reduce the heat to low and gradually add in the milk and cream. Stir until combined and lump free.
- Once the mixture starts to come together like a dough, keep stirring and turn off the heat. When the mixture has shaped into a ball, allow it to cool slightly so that it is not too hot to touch.
- Place the cooled dough on a work surface. Roll into a log that is about 25 cm (9.8 inches) long by 7 cm (2.7 inches) wide. Cut in half lengthwise and then cut into bite size pieces.
- Place in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow it to become firmer. Dust with cocoa powder and then serve.

Notes
