Butter Mochi Recipe

Mochi is one of my favorite desserts and my kids especially love butter mochi.  I decided to make some for Girls' Day.  There are lots of different recipes out there with some calling for coconut milk.  I decided to ask a friend for her tried and true recipe. 

As soon as I saw that the recipe called for 4 cups of milk, I decided to halve the recipe.  I still baked it in a 9x13 pan so the butter mochi was not as thick as it is supposed to be.  But it still tasted delicious!

Here is the unaltered recipe.  Super simple.  Mix 4 cups mochiko, 2 1/2 cups sugar, 3 tsp baking powder, 4 cups milk, 4 eggs, and 2 tsp vanilla.  Melt 1 block of butter and add it to the mix.  Bake in a greased 9x13 pan at 325 degrees for 90 minutes or until the edges are brown. 

Cool, cut and enjoy!
