The Best Ube and Cheese Mochi Cupcakes or Mochi Muffins Recipe by Kat Lieu

Hi friends and Fam! Kat here! I’m back with delicious mochi treats! You can make the batter for these mochi muffins or cupcakes entirely in one blender or in one bowl. I also love how creative you can be here and pair these gluten-free (plus you can make them vegan with subs!) treats with any topping of your choice, like white chocolate, coconut shreds, macapuno strings, or even cheddar cheese, giving homage to ube cheese pandesal!

Let’s say you’re busy and don’t have time. You can blend the batter in advance, refrigerate it for up to a week, and bake whenever! Be aware, however, these do take over half an hour to bake!

If you bake these beauties, let me know what you think! Please be sure to tag me @subtleasian.baking and #subtleasianbakes ! Happy baking, Fam!

Note: I don’t think these are the best mochi muffins recipe ever, I just meant this is the best ube and cheese mochi cupcakes or muffins recipe that is by me, LOL!
