Added: 4th Sep, 2007 | Viewed 418 times | |
A minor variation of the famous 'topra pak', this coconut laddoo is a little round explosion of texture and flavour. Very versatile and made in the microwave in under 8 minutes, it is the perfect sweet to have for any festival.
 
Preparation Time: 15 mins
Cooking Time: 8 mins
Makes 30 pieces
  Vegetarian  From My Recipe Book
Ingredients
   3 1/2 cups full cream milk powder
   300ml thickened cream
   1 cup sugar
   1 cup fresh dessicated coconut
   1/4 cup almond meal
Method

Combine all ingredients in a large microwave safe bowl and microwave on high, uncovered for 4 minutes. Remove, stir to mix well and microwave on high, uncovered for another 4 minutes. Mix well. Allow to cool. Take little portions and gently roll them into balls to make laddoos. Garnish with coconut flakes or pistachio nuts.
Gel's Notes
  • Don't try rolling into balls when mixture is still hot, as the laddoos will not take shape.
  • The laddoos will harden slightly after cooling.
  • Greasing the palms of your hands with
  • Rolling prepared laddoos in dessicated dry coconut before storing them makes for an interesting garnish.
  • Stores well in an air-tight container for 3-4 days and over a week in the fridge.
