Preparation
- Place the sugar, ⅓ cup of the water, and ⅓ cup of the flour in a microwaveable bowl. Using a small whisk or fork, whisk to fully combine the mixture. Cover the bowl with a microwaveable plate, and microwave on MEDIUM for 3 minutes, stopping every 60 seconds to uncover and stir the mixture.
- While the mochi is cooking, peel the mango, and slice off the cheeks. Set aside.
- Transfer the bowl of cooked mochi to the fridge, and chill until it’s cool enough to touch, about 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle some of the remaining ⅓ cup flour over a cutting board or plate. Place the cooled mochi on top. Cut the mochi in half.
- Lightly dust 1 mochi piece with some of the remaining flour, then roll it to about ⅛-inch thickness with your palms or a rolling pin. Place 1 of the mango cheeks on the center of the mochi piece, then wrap the mochi around it, and pinch closed. Repeat the process with the remaining mochi piece.
- If desired, you can brush the remaining 1 tablesopon water on the mochi pieces, and roll them in coconut flakes.
- Serve immediately, or place in the fridge, loosely covered, for up to 4 hours.
- Enjoy!
