Ingredients
  

Mochi Skin

  • 200 g glutinous rice flour wet-milled preferred for smooth texture; avoid dry-milled
  • 30 g cornstarch adds elasticity and prevents tearing; do not substitute
  • 30 g sugar adjust ±5g for sweetness
  • 250 ml whole milk or coconut milk if lactose intolerant
  • 25 g unsalted butter softened; adds smoothness, prevents stickiness
  • roasted soybean flour / desiccated coconut / ground filling as needed, for coating and anti-stick

Filling

  • 80 g roasted peanuts peeled and crushed; for crunch and aroma
  • 10 g roasted black sesame
  • 15 g roasted white sesame
  • 50 g sugar adjust ±10g to taste
  • 30 g Oreo cookies cream removed, only biscuits; crushed for chocolate flavor and texture

Instructions
 

Step 1: Make the Filling

  • Place peanuts, sesame seeds, Oreo biscuits, and sugar in a food processor.
  • Pulse 10–15 seconds until coarse (do not over-process; keep texture).
  • If no processor, crush in a sealed bag with a rolling pin.

Step 2: Prepare Mochi Skin

  • In a bowl, mix glutinous rice flour, cornstarch, and sugar.
  • Slowly whisk in milk until smooth, no lumps remain.
  • Pour the mixture through a fine sieve into a heatproof container.
  • Cover the container with plastic wrap, poke 10+ small holes.
  • Steam over high heat for 25 minutes. Do not open lid during steaming.
  • Remove, add butter while hot, fold until absorbed.
  • When warm (about 40°C), knead for 5–8 minutes until smooth, elastic, and non-sticky.

Step 3: Divide and Wrap

  • Divide dough into 45g pieces (about 8–10 total). Roll each into balls.
  • Flatten into discs 10–12cm wide, 0.3–0.5cm thick.
  • Scoop a little filling with a spoon and set it right in the center of the mochi skin.
  • Fold edges over, pinch closed, trim excess dough if needed.

Step 4: Coat and Finish

  • Roll finished mochi in roasted soybean flour, coconut, or extra filling crumbs.
  • Shape into smooth rounds.
  • Serve immediately or chill for a soft, refreshing texture.
