Black sesame glutinous rice balls---low sugar and oil version

Overview

I went to the supermarket yesterday and the sales of glutinous rice balls were very hot. The last promotion was buy one get one free. I was so excited. I wanted to be lazy and buy two packs, so I didn’t need to pack them. After looking at the ingredient list, I decided to put it down. If you want to buy a pack of black sesame seeds and a pack of glutinous rice flour, it’s better to make them at home. Last year for the Lantern Festival, I made dumplings with black sesame quicksand filling and peanut butter walnut filling. The glutinous rice balls filled with both fillings were very delicious. If you want the black sesame seeds to have a quicksand effect, add more sugar and lard, which will make you feel guilty when you eat it. This year, we still focus on health, greatly reducing the amount of lard, and replacing white sugar with part of honey. The sweetness is just right, the taste is sweet but not greasy, and it can be eaten in 6-7 servings without any burden. There are zero additions, and it still tastes good if you make it yourself.
