Instructions

Prepare the Sesame Seeds

Roast sesame seeds in a pan over low heat, stirring frequently, until fragrant and lightly golden. Ensure the pan is uncovered to prevent steaming.

Grind the Sesame Seeds

Grind ¾ of the roasted sesame seeds into a powder. Set aside the remaining ¼ for coating.

Prepare the Khoya

Heat the khoya in a non-stick pan over very low heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Cook until lightly golden and fragrant, but be careful not to overcook. Allow to cool completely.

Combine Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the cooled khoya, powdered sugar, ground sesame seeds, and cardamom powder. Mix thoroughly until well combined.

Shape the Laddoos

Roll the mixture into small balls (laddoos).

Coat and Garnish

Roll each laddoo in the reserved roasted sesame seeds to coat evenly. Place a cashew on top of each laddoo for garnish.

Serve and Enjoy

Serve your delicious Khoya Til Laddoos at room temperature. Store in an airtight container.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Khoya Til Laddoos

Use good quality khoya for the best flavor and texture.
Low and slow is key! Roast the sesame seeds and khoya gently to prevent burning and maintain their rich flavor.
If the mixture is too dry to roll into balls, add a tiny bit of warm milk, one teaspoon at a time, until it's pliable.
For a richer flavor, toast the cashew nuts lightly before placing them on top of the laddoos.
