Coconut laddu | Fresh Coconut Laddoo| Desiccated Coconut Laddu | Diwali Recipe 2024
Description
This is an easy to make coconut laddu recipe wherein I have used freshly grated coconut. I love freshly grated coconut for this laddu/ laddoo because once cooked the coconut milk solidifies a bit and gives a goey texture to the laddus.
I have used sweetened condensed milk thus additional sugar is not required.
This is a great Indian sweets for Diwali parties or any such festive occasion and really quick to put together.
Ingredients
- 1.5 cup Freshly grated coconut
- 1 tbsp Ghee or clarified butter
- 1 tsp Cardamom powder
- 200 g Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 1/3 cup Desiccated coconut (To roll the laddus)
- Mixed chopped nuts such as pistachios or cashews
