Sweet Rice Cake

Sweet Rice Cake is a traditional Chines desert. It is usually served during Chinese Lunar New Years. In Chinese, it is called “Nian Gao”, people use similar pronunciation to symbolize good luck for the future. I love the taste of the sweet rice cake, so I bake it anytime during the year.
