Let's admit, we Indians have a soft corner for desi desserts. No matter how hard we try to resist our sweet cravings, we somehow always end up indulging in them. Traditional Indian desserts are primarily made using sugar, dry fruits, khoya and oodles of desi ghee, which makes them taste incredibly divine. The best part is that you'll find a diverse range of unique sweets to choose from. One such loved Indian mithai is the classic nariyal ladoo.

Quick And Easy Sweet Recipe: How To Make Nariyal Ladoo In 10 Minutes
To make these ladoos, first, heat some ghee in a kadhai. Once it becomes hot, add desiccated coconut. Roast it nicely with the ghee for around 4-5 minutes. (This helps in giving the ladoos a nice aroma and texture).
Now, add boiled milk in the kadhai. Mix well and cook on low-medium flame until the desiccated coconut absorbs all the milk. Once the mixture becomes thick, add sugar and mix again. Next, add milk powder and combine well. (You can also use milk cream instead of milk powder).
Once done, transfer the mixture to a plate and allow it to cool down. Divide the mixture evenly and gently form small balls using your hands. Coat them with desiccated coconut and enjoy! Nariyal ladoos are ready!
