Gemblong -Fried sweet glutinous rice flour cake-

Gemblong.. hmm sweet sticky rice cake made of glutinous rice flour mixed with dried coconut flakes in a coconut milk with lil bit salt. Then shaped it into oval and then deep fried. Glazed it with dark brown sugar. That's a brief explanation of this dessert. >_<

It's traditional Indonesian snack when I was still kid. I guess some stores still sell this back in my country.
Some recipes used glutinous rice flour (white) only. I wanna make it like in Indonesia which is sweet black rice. I mixed half of white and black here. I browsed this link gemblong  since it's small amount. 

I wanna try it first before I offer it to my friends. 
In my opinion It's good, yummy. Well I ate it when it's still lil bit warm. I hope it's not too chewy when it's cold. Let's see. *After several hours I ate it and it was chewy, not recommended for you who wear braces lol*. That's how it should be tho. And still yummy too.
I wanna test it sit on the kitchen counter for 3 days to see how it looks. Before having it delivered to my friends in another state. 

You know when the food contains of coconut milk, it won't last long unless you store it in the fridge. 

Okay, will be back after 3 days for the update! 
I'm back after 3days! Hmm the gemblong in ziplock bag is hard as a rock >_< and the sugar melted lil. I ate it by heating it up in a microwave for about few second. It's still good, for the taste.
