Just made Palitaw, meaning "to float" in Filipino (Tagalog). A glutinous rice flour snack/dessert coated with toasted sesame, toasted grated coconut and brown sugar.

Never had it but it looks and sounds really good:)

Thank you! And yes, it's very easy to make, it only took me less than 20 minutes to make. Really chewy, goes great with a cup of coffee or tea.

🤩 Another one of my favorites! Please, oh please save some for me. Haven’t had them in years.

I actually prefer palitaw over cuchinta and puto… not sure if I should try to make this again or just show up at your front door 🤤

This vaguely reminds me of something I've had before... No sesame, though.

Regardless, it does look very nice :D

Yeah it's like mochi but flat lol and no filling. Basically the same thing!
