7 Cups Burfi / Fudge… 🙂 Today I’m pleased to share this Indian style easy fudge / burfi recipe which I learnt probably 10 years ago (don’t exactly remember)!!

Its my first dessert recipe that I learnt, other than the traditional one’s that I learnt from my Mother.

Made these for the upcoming Deepavali festival (Indian festival of lights) over this weekend!! One more sweet treat to devour in the traditional Deepavali thali.

I have to mention this, the plating and platter decoration is done by my younger darling daughter (of course the sweets are made by me)!! She is my little girl friend!! 🙂 🙂

And did u notice, the mirror work item, in the background…. that’s by my elder daughter. Hope you liked it! 🙂

7 Cups Burfi / barfi / Fudge. Indian sweets / dessert recipe with just 5 ingredients. easy, quick, storage friendly, suitable for party/festival.

Possible Alterations for the recipe, ‘7 cups burfi / 7 cups sweet fudge’:

Vegan substitute for ghee is vegan butter and for milk is coconut milk / almond milk.

I have used unrefined cane sugar, hence the colour of the burfi is a bit dark in colour. If you use white sugar the burfi would be lighter in colour.

Addition of nuts is completely optional.

Step wise pics Procedure for ‘7 cups burfi / fudge’:

Prep Work:

Firstly, grease a wide plate / tray with ghee / butter.

Sprinkle half of the chopped almonds throughout the plate. Set it aside.

Cooking:

Put a thick bottomed vessel on stove top between LOW to MEDIUM flame. Add all of the ghee / butter, when it melts add all the besan / chick pea flour / gram flour. Whisk thoroughly such that there are NO LUMPS.

***Now, add all the rest of the ingredients (except the chopped almonds / badam).***

***Stage-1…Keep stirring continuously, DO NOT STOP.***

***Stage-2….after 10 mins of stirring.***

***Stage-3….Bubbles start forming, after 20 mins of stirring.***

***Stage-4…After 5 more mins, the content leaves the sides of the pan, forms one complete mass.***

***Transfer the whole content of the pan, onto the greased tray. Sprinkle the chopped almonds over and gently press with the back of a spoon / ladle such that they stick to the burfi.***

***Using a sharp knife, make the markings of desired shape. Leave it to set for at least 20 mins. Cut into pieces, store them in an air-tight container. Done!!***

Tips:

Throughout the cooking, keep the flame at LOW only, if not there are bright chances of the content to burn.
Be very careful that the content doesn’t stick to the bottom & burn.
Be aware, that if burnt the smell cannot be avoided.
When the bubbles start popping, they might spill the batter, keep an eye.
Once you cut the pieces, trim the edges for a smooth finish.
Storage: Store the fudge / burfi pieces in an air-tight container.
These stay fresh up to 3 weeks at room temperature and up to 2-3 months when stored in fridge.
After taking out of fridge, thaw them for 10-15 mins, before serving

Result:

These, 7 Cups Burfi / Fudge, are soft in texture & nutty because of the loads of almonds which we added.
You can taste the mixed ingredients in every bite.
