A recipe very close to my heart as I have learnt from my mother.
This recipe can be made with ease at home,if baked carefully.
This sweet is available at exorbitant price in stores. We can also make it at much lesser cost and hygienically.
Note this recipe requires patience to get the best results.

Tips

We can use buru khand also instead of patasha powder
If both not available ,use powdered sugar (but result May vary)
Keep oven door open to mildly heat the kaju puris and Rotlo ,as the ingredients used can burn easily in high heat.
