Kitchen Equipment Required Mixing Bowls Measuring Cups and Spoons Rolling Pin Small Ice Cream Scoop Baking Sheet Parchment Paper Large Pot Sieve or Fine Mesh Strainer Cooking Time Total estimated time: 2 hours (including chilling time) Recipe: Mochi Ice Cream Ingredients 200g (1-1/2 cups) sweet rice flour (glutinous rice flour) 240ml (1 cup) water 200g (1 cup) granulated sugar 500ml (2 cups) your choice of ice cream (vanilla, matcha, strawberry, etc.) 75g (1/2 cup) cornstarch, for dusting Food coloring, optional Instructions Step 1: Prepare the Ice Cream Use the small ice cream scoop to create 12 small balls of ice cream. Place these on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place them back in the freezer to harden for at least 1 hour. Step 2: Make the Mochi Dough In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweet rice flour and granulated sugar. Gradually add the water, stirring continually until a smooth paste is formed. Pour the mixture into a heatproof bowl and place it over a pot of simmering water. Stir constantly until the dough becomes thick and translucent, which takes about 10-15 minutes. If using food coloring, add a few drops now and stir until well incorporated. Step 3: Rolling Out the Mochi Dust a clean surface with cornstarch. Turn the dough out onto the surface and let it cool slightly. Use a rolling pin dusted with cornstarch to roll the mochi to about 1/8 inch (3 mm) thickness. Use a round cutter, about 3 inches (7.5 cm) in diameter, to cut out circles of mochi. Step 4: Assemble the Mochi Ice Cream Remove the ice cream balls from the freezer one at a time. Place each ball in the center of a mochi circle. Quickly pull the edges of the mochi up and around the ice cream, pinching it shut at the base. Place each assembled mochi ice cream seam-side down on a lined baking sheet and return to the freezer for at least 30 minutes before serving. Conclusion Congratulations on mastering the art of making Mochi Ice Cream!
