Directions
Prepare the Mochi Dough:
In a mixing bowl, combine glutinous rice flour, cornstarch, granulated sugar, and milk. Sift once to remove any lumps.
Pour the mixture into a nonstick pan. Add butter and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and forms a dough ball.
Cook the Glutinous Rice Flour:
Spread glutinous rice flour on a baking tray and smooth it out.
Bake in a preheated oven at 338°F (170°C) for 6 minutes. Allow to cool and use for dusting.
Knead and Shape the Mochi:
Dust the dough ball and your work surface with the cooked glutinous rice flour.
Wear gloves and knead the dough until it becomes stretchy.
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and roll them into flat, round sheets. Cover with plastic wrap to prevent drying.
Prepare the Filling:
In a clean bowl, mix softened cream cheese, heavy cream, confectioners' sugar, and strawberry sauce.
Beat until the mixture is well combined and forms stiff peaks.
Transfer the filling into a piping bag.
Assemble the Mochi:
Place a mochi sheet on your work surface.
Pipe a generous amount of the filling onto the center of each mochi sheet.
Carefully wrap the mochi around the filling, sealing it at the top.
Place each filled mochi in a cupcake liner for easy handling.
Serve the mochi immediately or chill in the refrigerator to set the shape and enhance the flavors.
