UBE BUTTER MOCHI

Butter Mochi is a Hawaiian dessert made with coconut and butter in a glutinous rice flour base. Sticky, soft and buttery. I can compare the texture to Tikoy and Cassava Cake . I've made the plain Butter Mochi before and this time I thought of making it with ube flavor. I omitted the coconut flakes and added coconut milk instead. It worked!  
The coconut floated on top during baking that made the brown crust on top. It tastes like Latik, or curd coconut cream that we add to our Kakanin or Kalamay (Rice Cakes).

And because the coconut crusted on it's own, then there's no need to make latik which takes time to prepare.  To make this Ube Butter Mochi is very easy! Just combine the wet and dry ingredients in different bowls then combine them together. You can also do this using a blender. Transfer to a 13 x 9 pan and bake at 350F for 1 hour or until top is golden brown. You can tell when it's ready when the top starts to crack. How simple is that? You can make a delicious and easy to make Ube Butter Mochi without a sweat!
