Ingredients
- 2 cup Flour refine
- 1/2 cup Semolina suji
- 1/4 cup Gram Flour besan
- 50 gm Butter chilled
- 1 gm Baking Powder backing
- 1.5 tsp Salt or as per taste
- Water as required
- 500 gm Potato sweet
- 100 gm Sugar
- 100 gm Milk Powder
- 100 gm Almonds chopped
- 1 tsp Vanilla Essence
Instructions
Prepare the Cone Dough
- Combine all-purpose flour, semolina, chickpea flour, chilled butter, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Gradually add chilled water, mixing until a smooth, firm dough forms.
Chill and Shape the Dough
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough thinly and cut into long, narrow strips.
Assemble and Bake the Cones
- Lightly grease small aluminum cones with oil. Wrap the dough strips around the cones, overlapping slightly to create a seamless shell. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
Prepare the Sweet Potato Filling
- Boil or steam sweet potatoes until tender. Mash thoroughly. In a pan, heat ghee. Add mashed sweet potatoes, sugar, milk powder, and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and becomes slightly non-sticky. Stir in vanilla extract and chopped almonds.
Fill and Garnish the Cones
- Once the cones are cool enough to handle, carefully fill them with the sweet potato mixture. You can drizzle melted chocolate over the filling for an extra touch of decadence. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Sweet Potato Cones
- For extra crispy cones, ensure your dough is well-chilled before rolling and wrapping.
- If the sweet potato filling is too wet, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it reaches the desired consistency.
- Feel free to experiment with other nuts and spices in the filling, such as cashews, pistachios, or cardamom.
- For a vegan option, substitute the butter with vegan butter and ghee with coconut oil.
