This is a popular Indian dessert recipe that I got from my Indian coworker's wife. It is VERY sweet, so if you don't like overly sweet desserts, you might want to adjust the semolina/sugar ratio accordingly.
Ingredients
- 6 cups semolina flour
- 7 cups white sugar
- 1.5 tablespoons ground cardamom
- 0.5 cups ghee , clarified butter
- 0.33 cups cashew nuts
- 1 cup hot milk
Instructions

1
Heat a large dry skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add the semolina, and toast, stirring constantly. Stir in the sugar and cardamom while toasting until light brown and fragrant, about 10 minutes.

Heat a small amount of the ghee in a separate skillet over medium heat. Add the cashews, and cook until lightly toasted, about 10 minutes. Add the cashews to the semolina along with the remaining ghee. Gradually stir hot milk into the semolina until it is thick enough to pack into a ball. Remove from heat, and form palm-sized balls. Let cool and serve.

Danish Dream Cake
This Danish dream cake is a soft vanilla cake with an easy broiled coconut-caramel icing with a slightly crisp texture that contrasts nicely with the tender cake. For some of us, this cake, also called Lazy Daisy Cake or Lazy Day Cake, was the first cake our grandmothers taught us to make. A serrated knife helps to cut through the topping when slicing the cake.
