Hojicha Brownie Mochi (Brochi®)

Hojicha Brownie Mochi, branded as Brochi®, combines glutinous rice flour with hojicha powder for a unique dessert featuring the roasted green tea's toasted flavor and a chewy texture. The batter includes sugar, baking powder, vegetable oil, egg, and milk, baked into a soft, slightly dense mochi cake with subtle tea notes and a mild sweetness. This preparation yields a distinctive fusion dessert sliceable into squares and dusted with extra hojicha powder.
