Chè lam

This traditional treat is prepared with roasted glutinous rice that is milled into a fine powder before it's combined with peanuts, ginger, and either molasses or sugar. The mixture is continuously stirred until it develops a consistency of a sticky, pliable dough which is then flattened and coated in rice powder. Slices of chè lam are best enjoyed with a cup of warm tea, and although they were traditionally prepared for special occasions, the cakes are now enjoyed throughout the year, and they're especially popular in rural areas.
