Chocolate Almond Coconut Ladoos/Truffles recipe for special or festive occasions
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Almond Flour
- ¼ Cup Desiccated Unsweetened Coconut
- 2 tbsp Cocoa Powder
- ½ Cup Condensed Milk
- 1 tbsp Ghee or Melted butter(unsalted)
- ¼ tsp Cardamom Powder
To Roll Ladoos(optional and use any)
- 2 tbsp Desiccated Coconut
- 2 tbsp Sprinkles /Chocolate Vermicelli
- 2 tbsp Finely chopped Almonds or Almond Flour
- 2 tbsp Cocoa Powder
Instructions
- In a non-stick pan or heavy bottomed pan add ghee and condensed milk.
- Cook till it starts getting thick. Keep the flame on low, to avoid burning of the the mixture.
- Next add desiccated coconut, almond flour, cocoa powder and cardamom powder.
- Mix all the ingredients nicely.
- Sauté for 1-2 mins. The mixture will be very thick.
- Switch off the flame and take out the mixture in a separate dish. Let it cool.
- Once it is warm enough to touch, oil your palms and then take small portion of the dough.
- Smoothen it and make small lemon sized ladoos/truffles.
- Roll in desiccated coconut or sprinkles like I did. You can also roll in cocoa powder , chocolate vermicelli or leave it just like that.
- Store in an air tight container or serve as you like it.
Notes
- Keep the flame to low, while roasting Almond Flour and Coconut. As both may get burnt. We want very light nutty taste. You can also skip this step, but like to roast coconut and almond meal.
- .Condensed milk should not burn or stick to bottom.
- You can add 1-2 tsp more cocoa powder if you want dark chocolate tasting ladoos.
- I have used store bought Almond flour here, you can use almond meal also. Or, if both are not available at your place you can lightly dry roast almonds and grind to fine powder once almonds cool.
