Pista Chocolate Barfi Recipe
Ingredients
- ½ cup Powdered Pistachios
- 1½ cup Khoya
- ¼ tsp Green Cardamoms
- 2 cup Ghee
- 1½ cup Cocoa Powder
- ¼ cup Powdered Sugar
- 2 drops Rose Essence
- 2 drops Edible Food Color
- Silver Waraq For Garnishing
Instructions
- Put a deep-bottomed non-stick pan on low to medium flame and add khoya along with powdered sugar in it. Stir continuously and cook the khoya or mawa for about 15 minutes.
- Once the khoya is cooked, transfer it into a big plate and allow the mixture to cool completely. Divide the mixture into two equal portions.
- Take one portion of the khoya in a deep bowl and add powdered pistachios, cardamom powder, rose essence and green food colour in it, mix well.
- Now, take the other half of khoya in a large bowl and add cocoa powder in it. Mix it well too! Next, put a cling wrap on a wooden board or a flat surface and grease it using ghee.
- Place the prepared pista mixture over it and spread it evenly using your hands to form a 175 mm × 200 mm (7”× 8”) rectangle. Make a cylinder roll of the chocolate mixture and place it over the pista mixture leaving (1”) side from the bottom. Roll it very tightly with the help of a cling wrap.
- Gently remove the cling wrap to get a roll and cut into 15 equal slices and flatten it very lightly. Refrigerate the slices for 15 minutes. (Optional: You can garnish with chopped pistachios and silver waraq and enjoy!)
