Both my kids are not too fond of Indian sweets or chocolate, unless they are Ladoos or Dark Chocolate respectively. Adding Rose in place of chocolate for a delectable sweet – and this was born in just under 15 mins, and they were gone in less !! We made it last year for Janmashtami and it was an instant hit.
A 3-ingredient (almost) Zero Cook sweet nibble that works well for midnight sweet cravings as well as after school snack, its sure to be a delight for the kids. Although I had another Choco Coconut Ladoo with Choco chips, I am hoping another version of these coconut ladoos wont hurt 🙂
Bachelors / Bachelorettes / Dorm students can easily make this zero cook recipe too !
