When the festival season arrives, it is time to brush up our laddoo making skills and to expand our choice of laddoos because from Ganpati to Diwali, laddoo is a favourite offering to God.
And laddoos like this Coconut Laddoo are also easy to make. Immensely rich and tasty, this Coconut Laddoo has a luxuriant milky flavour and an exciting mouth-feel that combines the crunch of coconuts and nuts with the creaminess of condensed milk.
Keep aside some desiccated coconut to coat the laddoos, as that gives a very appetizing appearance and taste.
Also do try other coconut based mithais like Coconut Barfi or Coconut Sheera .

Well most of milk available nowadays is A1 milk so can u give some alterations please. Cows are treated very badly and milk and pus in it due to overproduction(in Canada, U.S) . Thickining of hair on stomach breast etc and length of hair also increases etc. are problems with A1 milk as it disturbs hormones. On the same time I m underweight but I don?t know why u r just focusing on weight loss. Can u do something for weight gain.
