• In a rice cooker, add the soaked rice, drained. Cover and turn on rice cooker by pressing “Cook”. Stir occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Continue cooking the rice until there is no more liquid. (The rice mixture should resemble wet steamed rice.) Switch off the rice cooker. Stir in ube mixture to combine, and then let the rice cool down.
• To make the coconut sauce: Combine coconut cream, sugar, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer until thickened, about 3 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
• To serve: Divide sticky rice among 4 dessert plates. Arrange mango slices on top or on the side then drizzle with coconut sauce. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and serve with more sauce on the side, if desired.
