7 cups sweet recipe

Diwali is over and the hangover, too...Time to upload the recipes of the sweets and snacks I made this year for the festival of lights.

The recipe below is for a simple sweet, called 7 cups.


Ingredients:

Besan/gramflour/kadala maavu- 1 cup
Milk- 1 cup
Ghee- 1 cup
Grated coconut- 1 cup
Sugar- 3 cups
Almonds,cashewnuts-optional

Take a wide-bottomed vessel. Add all the above ingredients and mix well.Switch on the stove on medium flame and allow it to cook stirring often so that the ingredients do not get burnt.



Once it becomes a little thick, keep the flame on low and keep stirring till the ghee starts oozing out.
Transfer the cooked mixture onto a greased plate and mark using your knife as if you are cutting into pieces.You may now place the almonds and cashewnuts in this mixture as per your wish.




Once it gets cooled,you will be able to remove the sweet pieces.
