korean mochi bread

Mochi bread is the best invention ever. I love bread, I love mochi, of course I love mochi bread! After buying these over and over again from Korean bakeries, I've searched high and low for a recipe. But I have come up empty time and time again. So I gave up and bought some premixed flour from Hmart. However, the directions are in Korean. Luckily, I found fellow blogger, food cafe, who was able to get a translation of the directions.

These little mochi rolls came out to be plump and perfect little balls.  They have a soft and chewy center which is surrounded with a crispy crust on the outside. I gobbled four straight out of the oven. I was in mochi bread heaven.
