Ube and Oreo are a delicious combination. The chewy mochi layer adds an unexpected texture in the middle. The crunchy and chewy ingredients combine to make a delightful brownie bite. This recipe includes ube dahlia and white chocolate to create a challenging, fudgy brownie. The brownie can be made independently, but I recommend adding all the other ingredients to elevate it.
Ube delight
The purple yam (pronounced ooh beh) is a staple in Filipino cooking. It is a popular ingredient in Filipino cuisine, and its nutty, sweet flavor adds an exciting twist to any dessert. Ube Cookies, Ube Cake, and Ube Ice Cream are just a few options. Ube is a popular dessert that has been gaining popularity online and worldwide.
Mochi
Mochi is a traditional Japanese treat made of glutinous rice. It gives the brownie a chewy texture. The rigid pieces of mochi contrast the tube’s smoothness and the Oreos’ crunchiness. The recipe can be used to make mochi without the brownie layer.
Cool the brownies before eating to create a compelling effect. The mochi tends to break easier when it is still warm inside the brownie. This is a fact!
Try this recipe. The mochi layer is a lot of fun! Try the matcha-red bean mocha brown or Biscoff mocha brown.
