Besan Cake

As like everyone since two days, my day starts with big question' wat to prepare today for diwali'..Yea diwali is really nearing very fast and the preparations for diwali are quite getting ready at everyone place na, can see loads and loads of diwali savouries and sweets everywhere..I prepared some sweets yesterday, one among those sweets is this besan cake, this cakes tastes as similar like mysorepak..with two cups of besan flour i got approximately 25 pieces of this delicious and tasty besan cake..I tried this cake for the first time, which i was planning to do since a long and finally i prepared this besan cake for this deepavali...Will be coming up with boondi laddoos, my all time favourite sweets...This besan cake is really very simple to do but wat all u need it some helping hand to stir, coz this cake goes for quite a long stirring process, which i hate and fortunately my H helped me to finish these sweeties...


2cups Gram flour
1cup Milk
3cups Sugar
1cup Ghee
pinch Salt

Dry roast the gram flour until the aroma comes out..Mix this dry roasted gram flour,salt with milk and make a paste.

Meanwhile make a sugar syrup with sugar and a half cup of water, sugar syrup must be in one string constitency..add gradually the thick paste of gram flour to the sugar syrup and the ghee to the sugar syrup and stir the mixture until they turns as a dough (at this time this dough will get off from the vessel) pour this dough over a greased plate, let them cool and cut them as any shape as u desire..

Delicious cake is ready!
