Korea’s classic summer dessert consisting of fluffy shaved ice topped with sweet red bean paste (pat), chewy mini rice cakes (injeolmi), condensed milk, and roasted soybean powder.

Piled high in a chilled bowl. Eaten with long spoons, mixing toppings into shaved ice as you eat to create a slushy, sweet treat.
Ingredients
4 cups finely shaved ice (or frozen milk shaved)
3/4 cup sweetened red bean paste (pat)
1/2 cup mini rice cake bits (injeolmi or tteok)
3 tbsp sweetened condensed milk
2 tbsp roasted soybean powder (konggaru)
1/4 cup canned fruit cocktail or fresh berries (optional)
Step-by-Step Directions
Shave Ice: Shave ice into a fine, fluffy snow texture using an ice shaver machine into a large cold bowl.
Layer Red Bean: Spoon sweetened red bean paste directly onto top center of shaved ice.
Add Rice Cakes & Fruit: Scatter mini rice cake bits and fruit around base of red bean pile.
Drizzle & Dust: Drizzle condensed milk over entire ice mountain and dust generously with roasted soybean powder. Serve immediately with long spoons.
Cooking Tips
Freeze Milk for Base: Freeze whole milk mixed with condensed milk in ice molds before shaving to create an extra creamy "snow milk" ice base (Uyu-bingsu).
