Kadalai Maavu Cake | Jiffy Mysore pak

Kadalai Maavu (Bengal gram flour) cake is a sweet prepared at my Aaji’s (granny) place for Deepavali 🙂 This sweet reminds us of the mysore pak. Hence I have named it as “jiffy mysore pak” 😀

Back here after a long time :D. Hey this is a lip smacking sweet!!! Surely going to try. I guess we can reduce sugar as per our taste. Am sure this would have been similar to the famous Mysore pa of krishna sweets 🙂 with generous ghee and sugar 😉 Drooling!!!

Delicious Mysore pa! To me mysore pa preparation is a huge task :D. This seems to be very easy one. Will give a try!!
