Some sweets feel like a hug in a bite — and coconut laddoo is one of them. Soft, melt-in-the-mouth, and bursting with the aroma of coconut, this recipe is my go-to for quick treats.
Whether it’s for festivals, family gatherings, or those random “I-need-something-sweet-NOW” moments — these 3-ingredient coconut laddoos made with Amul Mithai Mate are the answer.
🥥 Ingredients:
- 2 cups desiccated coconut (plus extra for rolling)
- ½ tin (200g) Amul Mithai Mate (sweetened condensed milk)
- ½ tsp cardamom powder
(Optional for garnish: chopped pistachios, rose petals)
🔥 Method:
1. Mix & Cook
In a non-stick pan, add the desiccated coconut and Amul Mithai Mate. Cook on low flame, stirring constantly for 4–5 minutes until the mixture thickens and comes together.
2. Add Cardamom
Stir in cardamom powder and mix well. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool for 5–10 minutes.
3. Shape into Laddoos
While still warm, take small portions and shape them into laddoos with your hands.
4. Roll in Coconut
Roll each laddoo in some extra desiccated coconut for a lovely texture and finish.
5. Garnish & Serve
Optionally, press a piece of pistachio or a dried rose petal on top for that festive touch.
💡 Tips:
- You can add 1–2 tbsp milk powder for extra richness.
