Kinako-Injeolmi Roll Cake

I’m obsessed with mochi, and I love experimenting with it in different forms. My latest creation is the Kinako-Injeolmi Roll Cake, inspired by the popular Korean dessert, Injeolmi Bingsu. This cake combines the soft, airy texture of a chiffon cake with the chewy delight of injeolmi (Korean rice cake), all wrapped in a nutty kinako (roasted soybean flour) coating. The result is a unique, delicious treat that’s as fun to make as it is to eat.
