Boba-Stuffed Mochi Waffle Bites

Chewy. Crispy. Gooey. Certified snack behavior.

Perfect for pop-ups, café specials, or a “we don’t gatekeep joy” National Snack Day drop.

🧋 Why This Works

• Mochi waffle = crispy outside, stretchy inside

• Better Boba = chewy golden pockets of happiness

• Bite-size = dangerously snackable

This is not breakfast.
This is not dessert.
This is snack energy.

🛒 Ingredients (Makes 18–24 mini bites)

• 1 cup glutinous rice flour

• 2 tbsp sugar

• 1 tsp baking powder

• ¾ cup milk (or oat milk)

• 1 egg

• 2 tbsp melted butter or neutral oil

• ½ tsp vanilla extract

Filling:

• ½ cup cooked Better Boba Classic Brown Sugar pearls
  (Cooked fresh, lightly sweetened)

Optional upgrades:

• Melted dark chocolate

• Matcha glaze

• Strawberry drizzle

• Powdered sugar dust

🔥 Instructions

1️⃣ Cook the Boba

Prepare your Better Boba according to package directions.
Drain and let cool slightly.
You want them glossy and chewy — not swimming in syrup.

2️⃣ Make the Mochi Batter

Whisk together:

• Glutinous rice flour

• Sugar

• Baking powder

In another bowl, mix:

• Milk

• Egg

• Melted butter

• Vanilla

Combine until smooth. The batter will be thicker than pancake batter — that’s perfect.

3️⃣ Stuff & Press

Heat a mini waffle maker (or regular waffle iron).

• Add 1 tbsp batter

• Spoon 4–5 boba pearls in the center

• Top with another spoon of batter

• Close and cook until golden and slightly crisp

The outside should be lightly crisp, the inside stretchy and chewy, and then… surprise boba core.

Snack reveal moment.
