Kalakand

dav

1 packet dry milk powder
1 cup sugar ( I used confectioners sugar and regular sugar 1/2 cup each)
1/2 cup Desi ghee
1/2 tsp Cardamom
1 tub Ricotta cheese

Melt ghee in a non stick pan. Line the 9 x 9 inch pan with melted ghee.

On low heat heat all of above and stir for 15 to 20 minutes, till it bubbles.

Taste and make a ball and check if the Penda is formed soft and holds together. Add Cardamom, sugar to taste if needed.

Let it cool in square pan. Cut into pieces in pan. Make round penda balls or as square pieces. Your choice!

Garnish with pistachios and almonds if desired.

Serve at room temperature.

Good Thoughts, Good Words, Good Deeds.

Make these for any good occasion like a baby’s first time sit down ceremony called Besnu.
