Indulge in the irresistible charm of Butter Mochi, a Hawaiian dessert favorite that combines the rich, buttery flavor of a cake with the chewy, satisfying texture of mochi. This easy-to-make treat features glutinous rice flour (mochiko) as its base, paired with the silky creaminess of coconut milk and evaporated milk for a luscious bite. Lightly sweetened with granulated sugar and infused with vanilla, Butter Mochi is baked to golden perfection, creating a crackly crust that contrasts beautifully with its soft and gooey center. Perfect for potlucks, family gatherings, or a sweet afternoon snack, this gluten-free dessert comes together in just over an hour and yields 16 delectable squares. Treat yourself to a taste of Hawaii with this crowd-pleasing classic!
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the glutinous rice flour, sugar, and baking powder until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth, then add the melted butter, coconut milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until the batter is smooth and uniform. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the Butter Mochi cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, cut into 16 equal squares and serve. Enjoy the rich, chewy texture of this delightful dessert!
