Halloween Mochi - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup mochiko sweet rice flour
    1 cup orange juice
    1/2 cup sugar
    food coloring (if the orange juice isn't appealing in color)
    20 Hershey chocolate kisses (I used dark chocolate)
    3 tablespoons sweetened cocoa powder (for dusting)
Preparation
    Mix Mochiko, orange juice and sugar in a bowl just until combined.
    Lightly spray 8x8\" pan with cooking spray.
    Pour batter into pan and cover with plastic wrap.
    Microwave on high for 6 minutes; if microwave does not rotate, turn pan after 3 minutes.
    Carefully remove plastic wrap; Mochi is done when center is firm.
    Let cool completely. (I suggest even putting it into the fridge for 10 minutes).
    Divide mochi into 20 (or so) pieces; wrap a kiss in the mochi (wet hands between making each treat so that the mochi doesn't stick to fingers).
    Roll mochi in cocoa (will only last 2-3 days).
