  2. Cook the Sticky Rice by soaking sweet rice in boiling water for 20 minutes, draining, and then steaming for about 25 minutes. Mix with coconut milk and sweetened condensed milk while warm.
  3. Make the Cookie Dough by creaming together unsalted butter and sugars. Add egg yolk, thick egg white, vanilla extract, and reserved coconut cream. Fold in baking soda, salt, and all-purpose flour until combined. Chill for 30 minutes.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking tray with parchment. Scoop dough onto tray, dollop with sticky rice and mango jam, and optionally sprinkle with toppings.
  5. Bake for 13–15 minutes until golden. Cool on tray for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
