Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup glutinous rice flour
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Wet Ingredients: Melt the butter gently and whisk it together with the coconut milk, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth. This ensures the flavors meld and the batter has the right consistency.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the glutinous rice flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Sifting helps avoid lumps and evenly distributes the leavening agent for a consistent texture.
  3. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Slowly fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain the brownies’ chewy and moist qualities.
  4. Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into a greased or parchment-lined pan and bake at 325°F (163°C) for 25 to 30 minutes. Check doneness with a toothpick; it should come out with moist crumbs but not wet batter.
  5. Cooling and Serving: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares. This resting step firms up their signature chewy mochi texture and makes slicing neater.

Notes

  • Use full-fat coconut milk for best moisture and flavor.
  • Measure glutinous rice flour precisely to preserve texture.
  • Avoid overbaking to keep the brownies moist and chewy.
  • Allow brownies to cool fully before slicing to set texture.
  • When adding mix-ins or variations, fold gently to maintain batter integrity.
