Mochi Ingredients
- 1 cup mochiko flour, sweet rice or glutinous rice flour about 140 g
- ⅘ cup unsweetened almond milk regular (sweetened)

Make the Mochi
- In a microwaveable glass bowl (like Pyrex), mix the almond milk with mochiko flour
- Microwave the almond milk-mochi mixture for 2 minutes
- Use a SOLID METAL spoon (wooden spoons might break!) to stir the cooked mochi so that the cooked and uncooked parts are evenly mixed, about 1 minutes
- Microwave the mochi mixture again, this time for 1 minute. The resulting batter will be thick and slightly translucent.
- Pour the cooked mochi onto the baking pan either sprinkled with starch or lightly greased with olive oil
- Cut the mochi into 6 pieces using scissors
- Fill with prepared almond paste filling. Enjoy!
