Milk Peda recipe with condensed milk / Milk peda or Doodh peda recipe

I made few sweets last week for Diwali and will admit that this quick Milk peda with milk powder was my favourite. It's so quick and requires such a few ingredients which is Milk powder and condensed milk for sweetness. It keeps well for more time atleast for 2 weeks.

 Ingredients:
1 cup Milk powder
1/2 cup Condensed milk
3-4 tblsp Saffron milk
1/4 tsp Cardamom powder
2 tblsp Ghee / clarified butter + 1/2 tsp to grease
few nuts of your choice for garnishing

Method:

• Soak Saffron in a warm milk and chop few almonds and keep it aside.
• Switch on the flame to very low and add Ghee and Milk powder. Mix well for few seconds.
• Then add condensed milk and mix till everything is well combined.
• Add saffron milk and mix again. Mixture will become thin and will start sticking to the pan.
• Add cardamom powder.
• Turn the flame to medium and keep stirring continuously.
• After few minutes the mixture will start leaving the sides of the pan.
• Slightly sticky and little runny mass will form.
• Switch off the flame and let the mixture cool down.
• Grease you hand with ghee and pinch a small lemon size portion and roll it like a shape of ball.
• Slightly flatten it and make a dent in center and fill it with chopped almonds.
