- 3/4 cup water
- 2 cups ice cream (assorted flavors)
- Oil for deep frying
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the glutinous rice flour and water, mixing well to form a smooth dough. Cover and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- Divide the dough into equal portions and roll each portion into a thin circle using a rolling pin on a lightly floured surface.
- Place a small scoop of ice cream in the center of each dough circle, fold the edges to encase the ice cream, and gently shape it into a round ball. Repeat for all portions.
- Heat oil in a deep frying pan to 350°F (175°C). Carefully lower the mochi balls into the hot oil, fry until golden brown on all sides, then remove and drain on paper towels.
