In Hawaii, butter mochi is a staple at parties and family gatherings. The sweet dessert is made with mochiko, which is a Japanese sweet rice flour, butter and coconut milk. Butter mochi has a dense, chewy texture. Because it's so sweet, it is cut into small pieces for serving.

You could add some flaked coconut into the mixture for even more tropical goodness. Store the cut butter mochi in an airtight container for up to three days.
