How to Make Bibingkang Malagkit

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup glutinous rice, 2 cups coconut milk, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
  2. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the rice is cooked and most of the liquid is absorbed (about 15-20 minutes).
  3. Stir in 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens slightly.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch square baking pan with 1 tablespoon melted butter.
  5. Pour the rice mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading evenly.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup coconut cream and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Pour this mixture evenly over the rice cake.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cake is set.
