Tips:
1. It is easy to melt the frozen chocolate by hand temperature, so it is difficult to knead the chocolate into a filling ball by hand. You can wear kitchen gloves and use plastic wrap to help.
2. Take part of the glutinous rice flour into a dough, cook it and mix with the remaining glutinous rice flour to prevent the glutinous rice balls from cracking during the cooking process.
3. When making glutinous rice balls, if the dough sticks to your hands, you can use a little less glutinous rice flour to make hand powder to prevent sticking.
4. After the glutinous rice balls are wrapped, the purpose of rolling a layer of glutinous rice flour is also to reduce water loss and avoid cracking during cooking.
5. It is best to cook glutinous rice balls with medium or low fire, high fire will easily cause the glutinous rice balls to burst.
