An Intro and Instant Chocolate Malai Barfi

Krishna of Keepwrite.com invited me to part of this wonderful platform of writers from different parts of the world who write on different subjects. A short introduction of myself, I am Sukanya an Indian by birth, residing in Singapore since 8 years post marriage, a tired mother of 2 lovely girls trying to balance time for everything including my blog. Blogging to me is a platform for expressing to the world. I started blogging in 2007 when I was pregnant with my little one and blogging has been a very fulfilling experience for me. My readers have showered me with some rave reviews and awards galore.

I consider it an honor to be part of this forum and my first contribution to this wonderful platform is the Instant Chocolate Malai Barfi from my blog Sukanya’s Musings. This post marks sweet beginnings with the readers and contributors of this forum. Thank you Krishna for inviting me. The world is truly shrinking thanks to the internet.



INSTANT CHOCOLATE- MALAI BARFI WITH A TWIST REVISITED

Since my first attempt last Diwali I have made these 3 times, this being my third attempt. It is such a hit in my house, that it gets difficult for me to save it for the guests. The best part is I can make it in a jiffy, It takes all of 15 minutes to make this exotic sweet. What can beat it!!!!!!!

Minimum ingredients, minimum time and minimum labor….only maximum love.

The guests are impressed, the hubby is impressed and my kid is drooling over it. The disappearing cakes are proof for it. So why not make it again, so I made it again with a twist. This time I added 6 squares of Cadbury’s dairy milk chocolate, this not only gave my chocolate layer a deep chocolate color but also gave the chocolate layer a more chocolatey taste….see how…..below

Ingredients

Milk powder - 2 cups

Almond meal (Powdered almond (skinless))- 1 cup (You can get it in the “baking needs” section of most shops)

Thickened cream - 300 ml

Castor Sugar (powdered sugar) - 3/4 cup

Cocoa powder - 1 tbsp

6 squares of Cadbury’s Dairy Milk chocolate

Method

Cadbury’s dairy milk comes in a big block of small squares. Break exactly 6 squares and melt on high for a second. Keep aside

Mix all the ingredients except cocoa powder in a large microwavable bowl.

Mix well and place bowl in a microwave oven for 4 minutes on high cook.

Remove bowl and stir mixture. Place again for another 4 minutes.

Transfer half the mix in a greased plate.

Quickly blend in the cocoa and the melted cadbury’s dairy milk into the remaining mix and pour over the barfi in the plate and spread evenly. After that for half a minute keep in the microwave again so that it is set. Cool and cut into the shape of your desire.

Blanched nuts can be sprinkled on top along with silver varq (foil).

Your exotic Chocolate Malai Barfi is ready to serve.

(Remember, postpartum depression affects both women and men.) If you manage someone who has recently had a baby, pay close attention to how they’re doing — a parent’s struggle doesn’t always show on the outside.

Find ways to make supporting employees and their mental health part of your culture. Adapted from " What Managers...
