Gourmet Junk

Sometimes you should treat yourself to some elegant junk food.

Dark chocolate, wafer-like cracker with a thin smear of cream in the middle. \The other version of an Oreo cookie.

Flaky chocolate straws with cream in the center.

Mochi is a popular snack/dessert in Japan and Taiwan. It is made from glutinous rice flour. You can find it either in the frozen aisle or by the baked goods section in an oriental grocery store. Mochi comes in many flavors with a variety of center fillings. Some are ready made to eat while others require cooking. The mochi in the photo is coated with sugar and chrysanthemum dust (fairy tale dessert).
