Ingredients

118 g unsalted butter
340 g unsweetened evaporated milk
4 large eggs, size L
10 ml liquid vanilla extract
454 g mochiko glutinous rice flour
383 g full-fat unsweetened coconut milk
2 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp fine salt
400 g white sugar

Preparation

Step completed · 1
Take the eggs out of the refrigerator and leave in their shells for 20 minutes to lose their chill.
Step completed · 2
Heat the conventional oven to 180 °C. Grease a 33 × 23 cm dish with 5 g butter. Gently melt the remaining 113 g for about 5 minutes, then cool for 10 minutes.
Step completed · 3
Mix mochiko, baking powder and salt in a bowl. In a mixing bowl, stir the room-temperature eggs and sugar with a whisk without adding air. Stir the coconut milk until homogeneous, then weigh the listed amount. Add it with unsweetened evaporated milk, vanilla and reserved cooled melted butter. Mix in the dry ingredients and scrape until smooth and lump-free. Pour into the dish and level.
Step completed · 4
Bake for about 60 minutes at 180 °C until golden, with set edges and a cooked centre. A central skewer should not carry liquid batter.
Step completed · 5
Take the dish out with oven mitts and let it cool in the dish for at least 60 minutes. Cut into about 24 small squares with a clean knife lightly dampened between cuts. The texture remains soft and chewy without being raw.
