🫐 Ingredients

How to Make It
- Make the Blueberry Sauce:
In a small pan, combine blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the mixture thickens slightly and becomes jammy. Let it cool completely before using.
💡 Tip: Store any extra sauce in a jar—great for yogurt or toast!
- Make the Black Mochi Skin:
In a heatproof bowl, mix glutinous rice flour, cornstarch, dark cocoa powder, bamboo charcoal powder, and sugar. Slowly stir in milk until smooth. Steam this mixture for about 20–25 minutes until fully cooked (it becomes a sticky dough). While still hot, add butter and knead with a spatula until smooth and elastic.
🖤 The black mochi skin gives serious cool dessert vibes—so sleek and chewy!
- Make the Filling: In a bowl, mix softened cream cheese with blueberry sauce until smooth and creamy. Chill in the fridge until it firms up a bit, so it’s easier to work with.
- Assemble the Cubes: Roll out the mochi skin between two pieces of parchment paper until thin. Cut into squares. Spoon some blueberry cheese filling into the center of each square and fold into a cube. You can freeze them for a firmer texture or chill in the fridge for that soft, stretchy bite.
💬 Q&A – All About These Blueberry Cheese Mochi Cubes!

A: Yes! Just microwave the mochi batter (in a heatproof bowl, covered) for 2–3 minutes in intervals until fully cooked and sticky.
