New Year Rice Cake Bites 年糕糖不甩

New Year Rice Cake Bites 年糕糖不甩 (nián gāo táng bū shuǎi) is a dessert I made by combining the new year rice cake with glutinous rice balls.
To make these bites, you first need to make my Easy New Year Rice Cake.
You can use any coatings you want. I used coconut for one flavor, peanut candy for another and a classic peanut/coconut/sesame seed combination for the third.
This is a must try! Very easy to make and very hard to stop putting them in your mouth!

Ingredients
  

*Note: Only make the amount you need because the moisture in the cake will soften the coating. The rice cake will be fine at room temperature for 2 to 3 days. Wrap leftovers in plastic wrap to prevent drying out.

  • Prepare a piece of parchment paper (or plastic wrap) and put it over a flat surface
  • Remove the rice cake from the pie plate and place it onto the parchment paper. Use a knife or spatula to help with removal
  • Make 2 cm x 2 cm cube pieces of rice cake by cutting strips first and then into pieces. Cut on top of mixing bowl so the pieces fall into the coatings. Make sure the pieces don’t touch other as they are quite sticky
