Coconut Laddoo ~ Diwali Mithai!!

I am back..yes,I’ve been gone too long if you ask me.Things have kept me busy and I have not been able to update the blog as often as I would have loved to and I am struggling to keep up with the goodie goodie posts that my blogger friends have posted.I hope to catch up soon.

Diwali is here once again and I am so looking forward to all the wonderful dishes that are going to make their presence felt in our lives as well as our waistlines:).But who cares..I am going to forget all about calories and cholesterol and such forgetful stuff[now who wants to remind me about my diet there..I promise I’ll give you one extra laddoo:)]

Is it evident or is it only me?I am struggling to fill up this post.I guess that’s what happens when you are away from the blog for so long.Ahh..so without any further delay,let me present you my first Diwali mithai..Coconut laddoo.One of the easiest laddoos I have ever made.Only two ingredients and it takes you less than 15 minutes from start to finish.So what are you waiting for..??

Coconut Laddoo

Ingredients
[Makes 30-32 laddoos]

Condensed milk[Milkmaid] – 1 tin
Grated coconut – 4 cups

Method

Keep aside about 50 gms of coconut aside.
In a thick bottomed kadai,add the rest of the coconut and the milkmaid and mix well.
Cook on low flame for about 5 minutes.
When the mixture starts leaving the sides of the kadai,switch off the flame and transfer the mix to another bowl and let it cool.
Grease your palms with butter and make small laddoos.
Roll them in coconut and arrange them on a butter paper.
Indulge and share the mithai with your ♥loved♥ ones too!!



Coconut Laddoo goes to Purva's event Indian Festive Food-Diwali Dhamaka

Happy Diwali!!
