Detailed Directions and Instructions
Prepare the Ingredients
Gather the three main ingredients: condensed milk, cocoa powder, and ghee (clarified butter). Ensure that all ingredients are measured accurately for the best results.
Cook the Mixture
In a non-stick pan, combine the condensed milk and cocoa powder. Place the pan on low heat and stir continuously.
Incorporate Ghee
Once the cocoa powder is well mixed with the condensed milk, add the ghee into the mixture. Continue to stir to ensure that all ingredients are well combined.
Thicken the Mixture
Continue cooking the mixture on low heat while stirring constantly. The mixture will begin to thicken as it cooks. Look for a smooth and glossy texture.
Transfer to a Greased Plate
Once the mixture thickens and starts to leave the sides of the pan, remove it from the heat. Grease a plate or a tray with ghee, and pour the mixture onto it.
Spread and Set
Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly on the greased plate. Allow it to cool at room temperature for a few hours until it sets properly.
Cut into Pieces
Once the burfi is set, cut it into squares or diamond shapes using a sharp knife.
Store Properly
Store the chocolate burfi in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
Notes
Consistency Matters
Ensure that the mixture reaches the right consistency by watching for it to leave the sides of the pan. It should not be too runny.
Garnishing Options
You may add chopped nuts or desiccated coconut on top of the burfi before it sets for added flavor and texture.
Experiment with Flavors
Feel free to experiment with flavors by adding a pinch of salt, vanilla extract, or cardamom to the mixture for a unique twist.
Serving Suggestions
Chocolate burfi can be served as a dessert during festivals or special occasions and pairs well with tea or coffee.
