My Notes:
- The measures are just given roughly, it can be modified according to your preference.There is no perfect measures for this recipe, so feel free to plus or minus the quantity.
- I added chopped nuts just for the crunch, you can skip that too.
- This ladoo keeps well for 5 days in room temperature itself, I haven’t tested it after that as it didn’t last that long 🙂
- While grinding, don’t overgrind as it will become pastey so just grind it coarsely.
- The ladoo keeps well for 5-6 days in room temperature.
Delicious and lovely looking ladoos. Excellent preparation.

Yes you can add it but add very little else the laddo will give a slightly bitter taste, just chop it fine and add it
