Accurate sweet recipe. It can be made in 10 minutes which is the best part. Tastes just like it is available outside. Soft and sweet.

Hi Preeti. I registered to answer this for you _x0001F600_ as I made milk cake today following YouTube recipe. You can substitute alum with half tsp of citric acid or lemon juice.
