Muah Chee (麻糍)

Muah Chee (麻糍) is a very popular Singapore street food. If you have been to any masar-malam (temporary night market), you will see these selling everywhere. The chewy dough is cover with grounded peanut, sesame seeds and sugar, something like the Japanese mochi but instead it’s something very special you will not see anywhere else but Singapore. (maybe Malaysia and Indonesia too)
