Equipment

  • Heavy bottom Pan
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Fresh Paneer
  • ¼ cup Milk Powder
  • ½ cup Sugar or adjust as per taste
  • 200 g Fresh Cream
  • 1 tsp Cardamom Powder

Instructions
 

  • Take a non-stick pan or heavy bottomed pan and combine all the ingredients.
  • Switch on the flame and keep it to medium.Start cooking the mixture on low flame, stirring continuously.
  • When you start cooking the mixture the mixture will be watery as sugar starts melting.
  • Cook for 10-12 minutes until the mixture starts to leave the sides of the pan.
  • Don't overcook the mixture, if the mixture gets thick you won't get the texture of kalakand it will be more of burfi. There should be some moisture in it.
  • Once you get the desired consistency of mixture, transfer to a dish lined with parchment/butter paper.
  • Top with chopped nuts of your choice. Press the nuts lightly to the mixture so that they stick to the top.
  • Let it sit in refrigerator 3-4 hrs before cutting into squares.

Notes

If you want to use condensed milk instead of fresh cream and sugar, add 200g condensed milk for 1 cup paneer. You can add more if you want it sweeter.
Add saffron milk or rose essence instead of cardamom for variation is flavour.
