I previously made chocolate mochi seashells a few months back. It's been a while since I used my Nordicware Seashell pan, which I noticed when I was unpacking things this weekend, so I decided to use it again.

Baking is definitely frustrating after a move. Especially when you aren't fully unpacked. It seemed like everything I needed was missing. This recipe is usually easy to make, but took me a while, since I had to find everything.

I liked the taste of these and the small bite-sized quantities. I'm not sure which I like better, the chocolate or the vanilla ones.
