The Baklava barfi is a sweet dish that got its inspiration from the famous Baklava, a Turkish sweet dish that is full of sugar syrup drenched in the cheese preparation. You can give your own twist to this amazing dish, and come with something special for your family.
You can make use of a ribbon of sweet baklava nuts that are elegantly sandwiched between plain white milk. I feel that the dish is suitable for any popular Indian festival like Eid, Diwali, and Christmas.
Almond Butter Barfi Bars
The Almond Butter Barfi is another interesting sweet dish that comes prepared from a combination of Cadbury Cocoa Powder, almonds, and butter. You will be happy with yourself, as you take a bite, and feel the crunch of a biscuit base.
Likewise, you can feel the luscious creamy chocolate topping as well. The middle layer is for your imagination to take over. You can make use of plain white milk powder if you want. I may suggest that you use a chocolate ganache on the top, and the bottom layer is a digestive biscuit base.
Pumpkin Kalakand
Who likes to eat the kalakand? The kalakand is a popular Indian sweet dish that is quite similar to the milk peda. This pumpkin kalakand is an exciting take on the traditional Indian sweet. Kalakand, also called the mishri mawa.
