First off, this recipe makes a lot of butter mochi and is actually the first recipe I have seen that does not call for coconut milk. This is my friend's recipe and it is awesome!
Get a large bowl out because you are going to need it. Mix together 4 cups of mochiko (FYI, this is more than one box), 2 1/2 cups sugar, 3 tsp baking powder, 4 cups milk, 4 eggs, and 2 tsp vanilla. Feel free to sub a cup of coconut milk for regular milk. Add 1 block of melted butter to the mixture.
Bake in a greased 9x13 pan at 325 degrees for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until edges are brown. You may want to put a cookie sheet under the pan to catch any butter drippings. My oven is still waiting to be cleaned up.
Cool. Cut. Eat. Enjoy! Thanks Susan F. for passing on this awesome butter mochi recipe!
Definitely! I did just that the first time because I was thinking 4 cups of milk is a huge commitment. I can't remember if I still used a 9x13 pan, but I think it should be fine. The mochi will just not be as high.
I live in Sweden now, been away from HI nearly 10 yrs now. How many ounces or grams is a block of butter? I'll have to see who sells Mochi flour. Otherwise I'll have to wait until I'm back in HI next yr, lol!
Thank you for this yummy recipe! So easy and it came out perfectly! I used one can of coconut milk. Brought it to a family picnic and not a single piece was left! Will definitely make again!
I have this exact recipe in a old cookbook from 30 years ago and the person who put it in the cook book said she had the recipe for a long time... it was called custard mochi not butter mochi.. lol... even the governor is in the cookbook and his recipe was andagi
Aloha, I’ve been using this exact recipe since 2012, and I just came by an old book with this recipe and the person who put it in the community cook book was using it for many years and she has no idea where it originated... it was called custard mochi in the book which I find ironic because a couple times when I made um i it came out like custard mochi but had no idea what custard mochi at the time and cried over it because I was making it for Christmas gifts and I thought I messed up some how.. lol 😂 anyways I must agree it is the best recipe for butter mochi I have ever tried, makes foodlands one taste gross after having this one😂

ReplyDeleteAloha Lc! One block is half a cup; 4 ounces. Good luck! Hope you like it!
DeleteJust made this and it's amazing! Thank you.
ReplyDeleteYay! Glad you gave it a try!
DeleteWhat is Mochiko? Is it rice flour?
ReplyDeleteYes - a sweet rice flour.
DeleteSounds delicious! Do you use the coconut milk? Just curious how it changes the taste and/or texture.
ReplyDeleteI had a friend that subbed one cup of coconut milk and she loved it! Don't think it changed the texture.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Going to try to make it for the New Year.
