Servings6 pieces
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup milk powder
- 1 teaspoon unsweetened coco powder
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 teaspoon melted ghee
- 4 nos pistachios chopped
Instructions
- Grease a plate with ghee and keep it ready before you start cooking. Mix milk powder and coco powder together, whisk it well so that it gets mixed evenly.
- In a pan - add sugar and water, stir well so that sugar completely dissolves.
- Let the syrup boil till the syrup reaches single string consistency....when you take the syrup between your fingers it should form a thin single string as shown that is the correct stage. It will be hot so be very careful.
- Now add milk powder coco mixture and mix well, keep mixing...in few seconds it will become thick but still in flowing consistency...this is the correct stage. Add ghee, give a quick mix and switch off.
- Transfer the mixture to a ghee greased plate, level it with a back of a spoon of greased zip lock for a smoother finish on top.
- Garnish with chopped pistachios or any nuts of your choice. When it is still warm, cut into squares.
- Cool down and store Chocolate Burfi in airtight container.
Notes
- Use good quality coco powder for good flavour and color.
- I used everyday brand milk powder. If your milk powder is coarse then grind it once to make it a fine powder.
- The sugar syrup will be hot so be careful while touching it. Else you can check it with a ladle and see. I find checking with fingers easy as I've been doing this for a while now so got used to this method.
- Choose a plate according to the quantity so that you can get perfect thickness and shape.
- The mixture will thicken fast so act quickly. Once milk powder mixture is added keep stirring to get the desired consistency.
- You can even leave it as such without nuts, but if you are adding nuts add it immediately while its still hot else it will not stick to the burfi.
- Keeps well for 4-5 days, after that refrigerate it.
