Chi chi dango, a mochiko dessert confection, is a soft, chewy Japanese treat that is very similar in taste to mochi. It's traditionally served at Girl's Day or Boy's Day celebrations. It makes a great snack for picnics or parties. This recipe is easy to make, but don't double the directions — follow them exactly as written.

Ingredients

  • cooking spray:
  • mochiko (glutinous rice flour): 1 pound
  • ½ cups white sugar: 2 piece
  • baking powder: 1 tsp
  • water: 2 cups
  • coconut milk: 1 can (14 ounce can)
  • vanilla extract: 1 tsp
  • red food color: 0.25 tsp
  • potato starch: 0.25 cup (or as needed)
