Rasmalai is a rich dish most commonly enjoyed in India. Today, I was craving something sweet, so I decided to make Rasmalai suitable for fasting. It turned out very delicious, just like from a sweet shop. It's so spongy that you'll want more than one. Its light sweetness makes it a favorite among both kids and adults.
