The warmth of pumpkin spice meets the cool creaminess of mochi ice cream in this ultimate fall-inspired dessert. Perfect for chilly afternoons or festive gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup heavy cream, chilled
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup pure pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1 tsp pumpkin spice blend (or adjust to taste)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sweet rice flour (glutinous rice flour)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup water
  • Cornstarch for dusting
  • Orange food coloring (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, pumpkin puree, pumpkin spice, and vanilla extract until smooth. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
  2. Combine sweet rice flour, sugar, and water in a microwave-safe bowl. Mix until smooth, then microwave for 1 minute. Stir, then microwave for another minute. Repeat this process until the dough is thick and sticky.
  3. If using food coloring, knead a few drops into the dough until evenly distributed.
  4. Dust your countertop with cornstarch, then turn out the mochi dough. Roll it out to about 1/8-inch thickness.
  5. Use a cookie cutter or a glass to cut out circles of mochi dough.
  6. Place a small scoop of frozen pumpkin spice ice cream in the center of a mochi circle. Gently fold the edges over, pinching to seal. Repeat with remaining dough and ice cream.
  7. Place the filled mochi ice creams on a tray lined with parchment paper and freeze for 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

[‘Don’t skip the cornstarch—it prevents sticking.’, ‘Work quickly to prevent the mochi dough from drying out.’, ‘Chill the ice cream well before assembly.’, ‘Adjust the pumpkin spice to your liking.’, ‘Keep your workspace clean to avoid sticky disasters.’]
