My 3yr old son, Ishaan is a picky eater and I'm always worried about his nutrition intake. I keep on cook different tasty snacks for my kid with healthy nutritious ingredients. I tried this one and Ishaan liked it. Sometimes I make the same sweet with Almonds only. You can check the Almond Burfi recipe.

Yesterday, our friends tasted the sweet and liked it. One of my friends Suchi asked for the recipe. Thanks to Suchi, who made me restart the blog. Suchi, this recipe is for you.
