Mochi, in my opinion is pretty close in taste to pound cake. The texture of this cake was nice. A great accompaniment to coffee.
FRUITY MOCHI CAKE
16 oz. mochiko rice flour (or can substitute for any brand of glutinous rice flour) 1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
1 (12 ounce) can evaported milk
4 eggs
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon orange extract
2/3 cup fresh strawberries, cut into small cubes Instructions
2/3 cup frozen or fresh blueberries
2/3 cup mango, chopped
Preheat oven to 350F. Cream the butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time until incorporated. Mix in the evaporated milk to the butter/sugar mixture. Mix in the rice flour, baking powder, orange extract and vanilla. Stir in the mango, strawberries and blueberries. Pour mixture into small tart molds or a 9 x 13 pan. Bake for approximately 1 hour at 350 degrees if using the 9 x 13. Check after 30 minutes if using the tarts. Let cake(s) completely cool, allowing the mochi to set, before cutting and serving. If using the tarts, let sit for ten minutes then remove them from the molds.
