Here's my simple recipe for mochi:

Ingredients:
Sweet Rice Flour, Sugar, Corn Starch

Mix one cup of rice flour with half cup of sugar. 
Add in one cup of hot water.  Stir.
Microwave mix for 2 minutes.

Put a tablespoon of corn starch on a cookie sheet.  Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of mochi and place on corn starch.  Shape the mochi as desired.  You can add red bean paste, lotus seed paste, or anything else you wish to have as filling. 

We tried putting ice creem in it and freezing it, but that didn't taste too good.  You can try putting ice cream in it and eating it immediately, though.

Enjoy!
