Ingredients

• 250 g glutinous rice flour
• 50 g sugar
• 2 g salt
• 280 g water
• 0 microwave-safe plastic wrap
• 1 tbsp cooking oil
• 1 tbsp cooking oil
• 1.5 tbsp cooking oil
• 0 cornstarch
• 100 g dark chocolate
• 0 cocoa powder

Instructions

1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the glutinous rice flour, sugar, salt, and water. Mix until everything is well combined and smooth.
2. Cover the bowl with microwave-safe plastic wrap, then use a fork to poke 3–4 small holes in the plastic wrap before microwaving.
3. Microwave for 2 minutes, then take it out, add 1 tbsp of cooking oil, and mix thoroughly with a spatula until there are no lumps.
4. Microwave again for 1 minute and 30 seconds, then add another tbsp of oil and mix well.
5. Microwave for a final minute, add 1–2 tbsp of oil, and continue mixing until the mochi becomes smooth, stretchy, and chewy.
6. Generously dust your work surface with cornstarch to prevent sticking. Transfer the mochi onto the surface and roll it out until flat.
7. Trim the edges to make a neat rectangle, then cut the dough into equal rectangular pieces.
8. Place 100g of dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 1 minute. Stir until completely melted and smooth.
9. Place one piece of mochi down and spread a thin layer of melted chocolate on top. Repeat with the remaining mochi pieces, alternating between mochi and chocolate to create multiple layers.
10. Use the remaining melted chocolate to coat the outside of the layered mochi. Place it in the freezer for at least 20 minutes, or until the chocolate has completely hardened.
11. Dust with cocoa powder and enjoy!
