MANJU (JAPANESE SWEET BEAN PASTE COOKIES)
These baked manju are filled with koshi an, a smooth paste made of red (azuki) beans and sugar. This recipe uses canned koshi an from the Asian grocery, which saves hours of work.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets.
- Beat sugar and butter with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth and creamy. Beat eggs, 1 at a time, into creamed butter until smooth; add vanilla extract and beat well.
- Sift flour and baking powder together in a bowl. Gradually stir flour mixture into butter mixture, mixing well after each addition, until dough is smooth.
- Generously flour your hands. Make walnut-size balls from the dough and press into 4-inch circles on a floured surface, making the circles thicker in the center and thinner on the edges. Spoon about 1 1/2 teaspoons koshi an in the center of each dough circle. Gather the edges together and pinch dough around the filling until sealed. Place dough balls, pinched-side down, on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Brush dough balls with evaporated milk.
- Bake in the preheated oven until tops are lightly browned, about 15 minutes.

BAKED MANJU
I have a friend in Hawaii who sends me recipes to make for my kids. Sometimes they work...sometimes they are an "acquired" taste. This one was a winner! I think she got this recipe from the Chamber of Commerce. The recipe does double (and actually the doubled recipe would use a full can of the an). If you're expecting a traditional Japanese dessert, look elsewhere. This isn't the same kind of manju with the glutinous rice (mochi) on the outside...actually it's closer to kuri manju without the chestnut and with a completely different filing.
