My daughter also got hooked on them and stole a bunch of them away into her own bowl! They're so irresistible, I had to forced myself to save some for my husband because he also loves it. While I'm taking pictures of these cute mochi balls, I couldn't stop myself from snacking on it. Usually, I like these mochi balls to be no more than 1 inch thick so they're easy to eat. You can either roll the dough into a thin log first before cutting it into small pieces to roll into balls or you can use a melon baller to scoop out portions of dough to roll into balls. There are different ways to form the small mochi balls. purple sweet potato is a lot dryer than other types of sweet potato, so you might need to add a few tablespoons of water to the mixture to make it more workable. Next, add in tapioca flour (no, you cannot use other kinds of starch here), then mix and knead to form a ball. While the sweet potato is still hot, add in butter and sugar before mashing them (as if you're making mashed potato). To cook the sweet potato, Steam them instead of boiling, as boiling takes away some flavor and results in something rather watery.
My version of this snack is actually pretty healthy, since it's baked instead of fried, and the ingredients are not that unhealthy.
#Mochi balls plus
The bouncy and chewy texture plus the aroma and sweetness from sweet potato makes this a snack that you cannot stop eating once you start. The sweet potato balls that this recipe is based off of consists mainly of mashed sweet potato and tapioca flour, which are rolled into balls and deep fried. This recipe is adapted from a famous Taiwanese street food called "sweet potato balls", which can typically be found in Taiwanese night markets. It's also a fun cooking activity not only for kids but also with friends. These colorful baked mochi balls made with sweet potato are healthy, cute, easy to make and very addicting.
