By Aanchal Mathur

Ingredients

2 Cups Milk powder 1 cup Milk 1/2 cup Sugar 1/2 cup Ghee 1 tsp Each of 3-4 food colours Almond shavings (for garnish) Extra ghee/ oil for greasing

Step 1

Melt ghee in a pan, add the milk and stir. Lower the heat and add the milk powder. Keep stirring.

Step 2

Add the sugar and stir to dissolve it. Once the mixture thickens, mix in the cardamom powder. Stir well.

Step 3

Turn off the heat and spoon the mixture carefully into a bowl. After a few minutes, divide the mixture into 4 separate bowls 

Step 4

In each bowl, mix in the food colouring of your choice. Take a tray with tall sides and grease it well with ghee or oil. 

Step 5

Take one of the bowls of barfi mix and transfer to the tray. Spread well with a spatula, but not too thinly.

Step 6

Take another bowl and spread its coloured mixture on top of the first layer. Continue in this way until all layers have been created.

Step 7

Now cut the layered shape into small squares. Carefully lift each barfi square and place it on a plate. Garnish with almond shavings and serve.
