2. Place the matcha bean paste into a piping bag and squeeze out round portions on a shallow metal tray.
3. Chill in the freezer.
4. Separate the anko into 12 portions (each portion being 30 g), and wrap around the frozen matcha bean paste.
5. Leave in the refrigerator until right before they will be wrapped with the mochi.
6. Place the gyuuhi into a bowl and whip until no longer lumpy.
7. Microwave for 3 minutes and then knead it well.
8. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for another 3 minutes while keeping an eye on it.

10. If it doesn't, then microwave for another 1-2 minutes.
11. Place onto a counter dusted with a large amount of katakuriko.
12. Divide the mochi into 12 portions and coat each with katakuriko.
13. Wrap the mochi around the filling while using a brush to coat with katakuriko.
14. Bring together the edges and tightly seal.
