My Notes:

• I used Cashew,Badam and Pista.You can use any nuts of your choice.
• You can even toast the nuts and powder it.
• Make sure the khoya mixture comes together before you switch off else you cannot shape it.
• If it doesnt come together,cook for few more mins.
• I used unsweetened khoya form nilgris which was dark in color as you can see.You can use homemade too.
• You can even stuff it up with dryfruits nuts mixture.
