Unique Dessert Made with Leftover Diwali Mithai

With festive season comes loads and loads of mithai! If you are bored with Diwali ki mithai and want to try something new and tasty, this recipe is for you!

Diwali is the festival when we make many many sweets and after two or three days everyone gets bored of those festive sweets. But don’t worry, we can give a fresh touch to the neglected leftover sweets and no one will be able to guess what you have done 😉

This Diwali, I made moong dal ki barfi and brought some motichoor ke laddu from the sweet shop but just after two days no one was ready to eat either the barfi or the laddu. My family wanted something else and so I tried this new way to serve the leftover mithai and everyone loved it. I presented it in shot glasses and that added to the experience.
