Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F/175°C

Combine water, butter, oil, and ube extract, mashed steamed ube in a pot over medium heat. Make sure to whisk the mixture until there are no lumps and everything has melted together.
Step 3
Take it off the heat.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients (2.25 cups of glutinous rice flour, 1.25 cups of sugar, a pinch of salt, and .5 tsp of baking soda).
Step 5
Pour the ube liquid mixture into the dry ingredients. This is optional but you can pour the liquid through a sieve and run a spatula on the top to remove as many lumps from the steamed ube as you can. Stir to combine.
Step 6
Add the eggs, vanilla extract and mix until well combined. Make sure to combine evenly and that there are no lumps.
Step 7
Pour the mochi brownie batter into an oil sprayed or parchment lined pan. Remove any air bubbles by knocking the pan a few times on the counter.

Step 9
Remove from the oven and let cool (10 minutes) before cutting into even squares.
Step 10
