mocha mochi
- ½ cup butter, melted and cooled
- 1lb of mochiko (sweet rice flour)
- 2¼ cup sugar
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 cups brewed coffee, I brewed Verona in a Sowden soft brew
- 1 cup half and half
- 4 eggs, beaten
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- Preheat oven to 350, and prepare a 13"x9" baking pan with non stick spray. Melt butter and allow to cool.
- Brew coffee with your desired brewing method. I suggest the softbrewor a french press to capture the full flavor of the coffee.
- Combine mochiko, sugar, cocoa powder and baking powder.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, and then add the cooled butter, brewed coffee and vanilla extract.
- Combine with the mochiko mixture and stir well, until fully combined.
- Pour into prepared pan and bake for 1 hour. Let cool fully.
