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. Want to see my last year’s Diwali delicacies? Just click this link⇒ Deepavali Visesha Nayivedyam / Diwali Festive Delicacies

Ingredients:
- Besan / Chickpea flour / Gram flour / Senaga pindi – 1 cup
- Ghee / Butter – 1 cup
- Fresh Grated Coconut / Desiccated Coconut – 1 cup
- Sugar – 3 cups
- Whole Milk or Vegan Milk – 1 cup
- Elaichi / Cardamom Powder – 1 teaspoon
- Chopped Almonds / Badam – 3 tablespoons
Special Ingredients:
- Elaichi / Cardamom Powder
- Chopped Almonds / Badam
Step wise pics Procedure for ‘7 cups burfi / fudge’:
- Firstly, grease a wide plate / tray with ghee / butter.
- Sprinkle half of the chopped almonds throughout the plate. Set it aside.
Tips:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
