Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Batter
  • 2 1/3 cups glutinous rice flour provides structure and chewy texture; substituting with regular rice flour may result in flat cookies.
  • 1 cup cold water ensure it's cold for the best texture.
  • 1 tablespoon neutral oil prevents sticking and adds moisture; you may use coconut oil for extra flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder acts as a leavening agent.
  • 1/3 to 1/2 cup granulated sugar adjust based on your sweetness preference.
  • 1 cup diced mangos choose ripe mangos for the sweetest taste.
  • 1 teaspoon yellow food coloring gel optional—skip for a more natural look.
  • 1 tablespoon miso optional; red or white miso works best.
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt optional; elevates overall flavor.

Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • Mixing bowl
  • Parchment paper

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine glutinous rice flour, cold water, neutral oil, baking powder, and granulated sugar until you achieve a smooth batter.
  3. Divide the batter into two equal portions and fold in diced mangos and yellow food coloring gel into one half.
  4. Drop spoonfuls of both batter sections onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each cookie.
  5. Bake for 13 to 14 minutes, until golden brown tops appear.
  6. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool before enjoying.
