Brown Rabbits - Chestnut Jouyo Manjyu (Wagashi)
There is a traditional Japanese sweet Jouyo Manjyu which is a bean paste ball wrapped with dough of grated Yamaimo & rice flour. In this recipe, chestnut puree is used instead of bean jam. And brown sugar is used for the dough. So the color gets brown a little. I made brown rabbits with these ingredients!
