Kaju Katli is always my all time favorite sweet. Since childhood, myself and my sister used to fight a lot for sharing this sweet during diwali times. Initially, I thought, making this recipe is really a lengthy process. But, when i was googling the procedure of kaju katli, got to know about the simple steps in making it. nowadays, I used to this one once in a month as I am now practiced to do this recipe within a matter of five minutes. This sweet really requires only four ingredients with the end result of delicious sweet

  • sugar – 1/2 cup (125 gms)
  • water – 3 tbsp

  • cardamom powder – 1/8 tsp

Pre task:

  • Grind the cashew nuts into fine powder (use “pulse” mode in mixie. also make sure not to form oily)
