Chi Chi Dango

Mochiko flour does the heavy lifting here, with sugar rounding it out. A Hawaiian snack that takes 55 minutes, start to finish. At 616 calories and 8g protein per serving, it fits easily into a high-protein day. Simple enough for a Tuesday, good enough to serve to guests — that is the whole idea.

Ingredients

• 1 lb Mochiko flour
• 2 cups Sugar
• 1 cup Coconut milk
• 1 cup Water
• 1 tsp Baking powder
• 1 tsp Vanilla
• 4 drops Food coloring

Steps

1. Whisk everything smooth, tinting pink or leaving snowy white — both are traditional.
2. Bake at 350°F for 50 minutes until set and the edges pull away.
3. Cool completely, then cut into small squares and dust lightly with mochiko or coconut.
4. Chewy, coconutty, and dangerously poppable; Girls' Day would approve.
5. Dust with a little extra mochiko so the pieces do not stick together in the container.
