First, those were the scones I made using Ashaji's recipe.....I made them smaller, left out the dried fruit for the fear of them being thrown back at me by Baby Siddharth, added just a touch of Saffron and Butterscotch chips in the middle. They came out delicious, all were gone in a matter of hours.
Then, I just had to make the blessed "Gajar Ka Halwah" using Manasi's recipe!
I just added my own touch of roasted and grated pistachios and almonds on top, and used an Almond extract for a deliciously, unique flavor. That was gone in 60 seconds.

ReplyDeleteHi Trupti,
ReplyDeleteBoth looking very nice. I liked the pic of Halwa.

ReplyDeleteCoffee asks for 1 sweet dish and everyone makes 2 or more!!! The dishes are indeed tempting, Trupti!!! :)
We have a saying here - pot telling kettle he bottom black. Loosely translated it means, Look who's talking when they do the same thing.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Bee here (lol) - what about the weight we've gained from all your mouth-watering, delicious food? Ah ha ha ha
BTW, I meant to tell you since you put up the pic - it is very fetching.
Love your entries.
