I made this for Fourth of July party and it was a huge hit. I had to alter slightly because ripe mangoes can be tricky to find. I used two semi-ripe mangoes and puréed them, mixed 2/3 of the purée with the batter and swirled the rest over the top. That way there was mango flavor throughout the mochi, and an added hit on top. So yummy!

I used half of a bag of frozen mango pulp -- thawed. Worked well. And since I didn't have a 7X11 pan - used an 8X8 and a few cupcakes. All seemed to have worked out. Will see how the two compare - but it might make lovely mini-cupcakes.

I'm so glad you reposted this! I totally forgot about it, and remember I really wanted to make it. It looks so moist and full of wonderfulness.

Thanks Mindy! Will add pan size above. The sweet rice flour gives the texture a little more bounciness than wheat flour, but less than you might expect-- it's not sticky.

Hi Mindy, thanks for pointing out my omission (oops!)-- now corrected above. As for the texture, it's bouncier than a cake made with wheat flour, but not sticky in the way you might imagine sweet rice flour would be.

We love mochis - I"ve never thought to make them, though. What a terrific recipe!

Thanks so much! Yes, not a low-calorie food. Everything in moderation...
