    • Instructions

    Can I skip milk powder?

    I would recommend milk powder for the perfect soft melt-in-mouth burfi. Always grind cashews with milk powder

    How long should I grind Cashews?

    Grounding cashews help with the dough texture. however, avoid over-grinding as it oozes out oil and makes burfi oily. Always pulse a few times (4-5 times) and grind once; mix well in between the grinding. you should able to hold the mixture at the same time easy to crumble

    CAN I USE REGULAR SUGAR?

    No, always use powdered sugar for no-cook munthiri sweet. I have ground powdered sugar. Instead, you can use store-bought powdered sugar.

    can I skip sieving?

    sieving helps for perfect burfi texture so always follow the recipe as mentioned.

    CAN I REDUCE POWDERED SUGAR?

    Yes, adjust according to your taste.

    Is ghee enough for the binding?

    Yes, kneading well the oil in cashew along with ghee helps for the binding. Avoid adding more ghee as it might affect the dough texture.

    can I use water instead of ghee?

    Yes, you can use water to make cashew katli. Ghee and water give different tastes and textures to the kaju barfi.

    Can I skip cardamom powder?

    Yes, you can use kewra water, rose essence, or any other flavor according to your choice.

    Can I use milk instead of ghee?

    Milk will reduce shelf life. I would recommend water/ghee for longer shelf life.

    Can I cut the cashew fudge Immediately?

    no, always refrigerate till it is set. I generally keep it for 45 mins.

    Should I refrigerate the cashew fudge?

    I would recommend refrigerating to retain the best taste and texture.
