Ingredients
- 1 Fresh Coconut medium sized
- 2 tbsp Desi Ghee
- 1 cup Full fat Milk
- ¾ Sugar

- Pistachios, Rose Petals and Silver Vark for garnishing.
Instructions
- Take 1 fresh Coconut, peel the outer brown layer, and chop it into small pieces.
- Add all the chopped pieces to a grinding jar and grind it on pulse mode. We have to keep the consistency slightly coarse and not fine.
- Check the consistency below. The texture is not paste-like and looks the same as the desiccated coconut.
- Now, take a pan, add 2 tbsp of desi ghee, and add the coconut powder. Cook for 2 minutes on low flame.
- After cooking for 2 minutes, add 1 cup of milk. Use full-fat milk. Cook on low to medium flame until the Coconut absorbs the milk and gets dried.
- Now, add ¾ cup of sugar and mix it well. Cook on low to medium flame and add ½ tsp cardamom powder when it gets dried.
- Cook until we get the desired consistency as shown below. The coconut will start leaving the Kadai. Leave it aside for 20 minutes to let the mixture cool off.
- After 20 minutes, the mixture will get more dried. Now, let’s proceed to make the Laddus.
- Apply desi ghee to your hands, take a spoonful of coconut mixture, and give them the shape of a Laddu.
- Prepare the other Laddus in the same manner.
- Garnish with chopped Pistachios, rose petals, and silver Vark.
- The tasty and delicious Coconut Laddu is ready. Serve it to your friends and family this Diwali and make your celebration special. Happy Diwali!
