I used to consider Kaju katli as one of the expensive desserts, and always thought that it is not easy to make at home till I made it myself.  It came out perfect. Next time when you plan to buy Kaji katli, please give this recipe a try, Cooking time is hardly 20-30 minutes or less than that… and come on it is just three ingredients recipe.

P.S. I didn’t use silver sheet(warak) I usually avoid to buy desserts decorated with silver sheet.
