Chinese: Mid-Autumn Festival
Mid-Autumn Festival is coming again, it will be on 10/3/2009
This year I first trial to make some Mooncake mochi, it's not typical mooncake, this kind of Mooncake mochi been popular in Hong Kong for a few years, as it's hard to buy here in USA, especially in St. Louis, so I searched the recipe on youtube and made my first mooncake mochi.
The mooncake molds were bought from Hong Kong.
Cake skin same as ice-cream mochi skin. Stuffing is cooked sweeten egg+milk.

When Connie mentioned the name of this dessert called 奶黃冰皮月餅 to me. I have no idea what it is. Now I am seeing the picture, it looks so delicious. Your mooncake molds made them look even more authentic. I love mochi; they are soft and a bit chewy. Common mochi I got from store contain either red-bean paste or green-been paste. I have never had cooked sweeten egg+milk filling in mochi before. All your dessert creation are scrumptious, You are such a good baker.

Thanks Jishin, Dana and Blue!
Dana: I tried those Taiwan style mochi too, the mochi skin is so thick, but chewy, just like Japanese daifuku (è‰餅). I love daifuku. I used to have the recipe of making daifuku. But my husband doesn't like daifuku.
10/3 is mid-autumn, and my Mochi Mooncake almost gone, I am going to make some more, this time will make some green-bean paste stuffing. But I will need to go to Chinese grocery store to look around first.
Now, I know how to make the mochi skin, so how to wrap ice-cream in to make it like mochi ice-cream?
I think I'm going to be a Desert Mama.
Blue: I think you can find them at your China town.
