Amoffle is a Japanese dish consisting of mochi rice cake cooked in a waffle iron, which creates a waffle.[1][2] A typical cooked moffle has a crunchy exterior with a thin interior layer of glutinous mochi.[3] When prepared as a dessert, it is typically served with various condiments.[1][2] It is also prepared as a snack food using ingredients such as ham and cheese or cod roe.[4]
Sanyei Company claims to have invented the moffle, receiving a trademark for the product in 2000.[3] Sanyei mass-produces moffle makers for consumer and commercial use.[3] Some restaurants use flavored mochi to prepare the moffle.[3]
