Mawa Barfi / Milk Fudge with Coconut Palm Sugar


Organic Whole Milk - 1/2 gallon
Coconut Palm Sugar - 1/2 cup
Pistachios - a tbsp, chopped



Bring the milk to a boil in a heavy bottomed pan. Simmer and cook on very low heat for around two hours. Keep stirring the milk so that it doesn't stick to the bottom.


After 2 hours, the milk gets very thick. At this point we have to continuously stir otherwise it can get burnt easily. Add the coconut palm sugar and continue to cook for atleast10 more minutes till the mixture comes together almost like a soft ball. Coconut palm sugar is more sticky than normal sugar and takes more time to dry. So we have to cook a little more to make the barfis.

Pour the thickened milk on a greased tray. Sprinkle chopped pistachios on top and cut into desired shape after it cools completely. Store in an airtight container. Makes around 12 barfis.
