Chocolate Coconut Modak With Cadbury Cocoa Powder For Ganpati Bappa Recipe

Directions

Heat ghee in a pan and add desiccated coconut

Gently roast until aromatic and lightly golden.

Add the condensed milk and stir well until the mixture comes together into a smooth, cohesive mixture.

Sprinkle chopped nuts and cardamom powder and mix well, allowing its delicate fragrance to infuse.

Add the Cadbury cocoa powder

Stir thoroughly until evenly incorporated and the mixture turns rich and chocolatey. Remove from the flame, transfer the mixture to a bowl, and allow it to cool slightly until comfortable to handle.

Grease a modak mould generously with ghee and sprinkle some dry rose petals.

Fill the mould with the prepared coconut-chocolate mixture, pressing it gently and firmly into the mould to ensure the modak holds its shape.

Carefully demould the modak and arrange it on a serving plate. Finish with delicate flakes of silver varq for an elegant, festive touch.
