Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat & Prep
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

2️⃣ Make the Dough
- In a large bowl, mix glutinous rice flour and salt.
- Add milk and oil, stirring until the mixture resembles small crumbs or pellets.
- Stir in the beaten egg until a smooth dough forms.
- Fold in the Parmesan, cheddar cheese, and green onions (if using) until evenly combined.
3️⃣ Shape & Bake
- Lightly dust a work surface and your hands with glutinous rice flour.
- Shape the dough into a disc and cut into 8 wedges.
- Roll each wedge into a ball and place on the prepared baking sheet.

4️⃣ Serve & Enjoy!

Notes
- Glutinous rice flour (also called sweet rice flour) is essential—regular rice flour won’t work.
- For extra cheesy flavor, add more cheddar or mozzarella.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
- To reheat, microwave for 5–10 seconds to soften.
