Servings
For the Recipe
- Lotus Biscoff Spread: 1 / 4 cup
- Fresh paneer or chenna: 2 cups
- Powdered sugar: ½ cup
- Raisins: ¼ cup
- Cardamom powder: ¼ tsp
Directions

Using the heel of your palm, knead the chena vigorously for 4 to 5 minutes.

Transfer the kneaded chhana into a non-stick pan over low heat. Add the powdered sugar and mix continuously.

Stir continuously until the sugar melts & mix properly with the kneaded chena. The mixture will loosen up before coming together into a soft dough.

Mix in the cardamom powder, turn off the heat, and let the mixture cool down.

Divide the warm-to-cool sandesh dough into equal-sized, lemon-sized balls. Add the prepared sandesh dough into the sandesh mold & give it a shape.

Spoon a small dollop of smooth Biscoff spread into the center cavity. Seal the Biscoff filling completely inside.

Gently release the Sandesh from the mold to imprint a design.

Keep the Sandesh in the refrigerator for 30 minutes & enjoy.
Store the Sandesh in the refrigerator for 1 week.
