Wet Ingredients (Mixture 1)

Dry Ingredients (Mixture 2)

• 220 g glutinous rice flour (Rose Brand)
• 20 g cocoa powder
• 1/2 tsp baking powder

Filling and Topping

• 120 g dark chocolate (DCC) or chocolate chips for the filling
• Chocolate chips to taste for topping

Step-by-Step Preparation

Start by preparing Mixture 1. In a medium bowl, whisk the egg, sugar, salt, and vanilla paste until well combined. Slowly add the milk and vegetable oil while continuing to stir until smooth.

In another bowl, mix Mixture 2 ingredients: glutinous rice flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Gradually combine this dry mix with the wet mixture until a smooth batter forms. Make sure there are no lumps.

Pour half the batter into individual ramekins or cupcake molds. Add a spoonful of chocolate filling in the center of each mold, then cover with the remaining batter. Sprinkle a few chocolate chips on top as a finishing touch.

Bake and Enjoy the Lava

Bake the mochi brownies in a preheated oven at 175°C (347°F) for 20–25 minutes. When done, the surface should be slightly cracked while the inside remains soft and lava-like.

Let them cool slightly before serving. The gooey chocolate center will ooze out perfectly, while the outer mochi layer gives a chewy bite—a perfect dessert for any occasion.

Final Thoughts

These Mochi Lava Brownies bring together the best of both worlds: the sticky chewiness of traditional mochi and the rich indulgence of molten chocolate brownies. Whether you’re hosting a gathering or just craving a late-night treat, this recipe is sure to impress.

Give it a try, and elevate your dessert game with this modern twist on a beloved classic.
