I made these the same way you would make potato mochi. I combined cheese and cinnamon with kabocha squash.

Steps

1

Remove the seeds and pith of the kabocha squash and peel. Cut into 2 cm wedges. You can microwave for around 2 minutes to make it easy to peel.
2

Put the kabocha in a pot with enough water to cover and boil. Drain and mash using a masher.
3

While it's still hot, add the katakuriko and salt and mix.
4

It should look like this after mixing it well, like a yellow clay.
5

Divide the mixture from Step 4 into 4 equal parts. Add [A] or [B] ingredients and roll into balls.
6

I formed the cheese filling into balls and the cinnamon sugar into ovals.
7

Add butter to a frying pan. Cook over medium heat for 3 minutes and flip. Cover the pan with the lid and cook for 2 minutes more. Done.
8

They're cooked until golden brown.
9

For the cinnamon sugar, the ratio is 2 parts sugar to 1 part cinnamon. I used 1 teaspoon of cinnamon sugar for each mochi.
