Place cupcake liners into muffin pans or grease muffin pans with a lightly oiled paper towel, if not using cupcake liners. The edges of the mochi muffins will come out crispier without cupcake liners.
In a mixing bowl, stir together dry ingredients.
In a bowl of a stand mixer with paddle attachment (optional) or in another bowl, mix together wet ingredients.
Pour dry ingredients slowly into wet ingredients. Mix well until combined.
Bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Remove from muffin pans and place on a cooling rack. When cool, frost with whipped cream or eat as is!
