Serves 8 Prep 30 mins + freezing Cook 10 mins Total 2 hours

Ingredients

100 g (1/2 cup) glutinous rice flour
40 g caster sugar
160 ml (2/3 cup) water
Cornflour, for dusting
8 small scoops ice cream (any flavour), pre-frozen hard

Method

Mix rice flour, sugar and water in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave 2 minutes, stir, then another 1–2 minutes until sticky and translucent.
Dust a surface with cornflour. Roll dough thin and cut into 8 circles.
Wrap each ice cream scoop quickly with dough, sealing edges. Freeze until firm.

Tip: Work fast — soft ice cream makes sealing messy.
