MMMMmm! Thanks for the recipe i must try it some weekend!
Yummy yum! I have an entire book with mochi recipes, but Azuki cupcakes are entirely new to me. I can't wait to try this.
Thanks for your visit. Your site looks interesting. Love the braille idea. I would have never thought of that.
Ah, mochiko flour. The first time I realized they stocked it here I bought all three boxes on the shelf I was so afraid the store would stop ordering it. Azuki cup cakes sound delish. Now somebody just has to come up with a recipe for mochi ice cream.
Would love to try these muffins, no doubt I'll never find the mochiko in blustery old England - I'll definitely be on the look out. And your blog is lovely too!
Sounds like a yummy recipe. The pics are cute too!
Do these freeze well? I live alone and this is a lot of cupcakes for one batch, but it would be nice to have them on hand! (I also have about six boxes of mochiko in my pantry and I'm too lazy to make mochi so they hzve been there awhile, so this is looking better and better! ♥)
I've never frozen the mochi cupcakes. I've found after about two days the texture changes and they don't taste as good. If you decide to freeze them, I recommend doing it the same day you make them. Let me know how it comes out.
Thanks, I'll try it soon (with a smaller batch) and let you know the results!
this looks amazing! i am going to attempt making these ASAP! I also really love the photos. I love food photography.
bunbun
let me know how the come out, I hope you enjoy them as much as we do
Hi kawaii crafter! I finally got to make the mochi cupcakes today!
Oishii desu ne!
Thank you so much for providing the recipe on here!
I posted pictures of the result on my blog. I cant wait for my husband to get home and try them!
I'm not sure if this is your original recipe, but my boss, Mr. Matsunaga, said this is a 2 generation family recipe. He brought some the other day and it was just soo good and the mochi was chewy.
I just tried these and they're magnificent! The only thing I should have put more of was PAM in the cupcake holders. :) Thank you!
Thanks for this easy lovely recipe. I grew up in Hawaii and mochi is comfort food for me! I made these for a dinner party and the recipe turned out perfectly. I was a bit shy with the amount of filling the first time around though and I think for the next round I'll go for more generous teaspoons. One thing: mine cracked along the top. Doesn't affect taste though-- any thoughts as to why this might have happened?
paxoo1,
That's completely normal for them to crack on top. If you look at the pictures I took, you'll notice some of the cupcakes are cracked on the top as well. I'm not sure why it happens but you didn't do anything wrong.

Thanks for your thoughts on the cracking question. I made these again last night and this time no cracks! For this second batch I cut the sugar in half and was very pleased with the result. I didn't notice or miss the extra sugar.
