Mawa Modaks - Assorted

 
 
                          There was a Ganpati celebration at my friends place. I had made these assorted mawa modak for Lord Ganesha. When the aarti was done, my friend offered these modaks to everyone else. You wont believe how hit these modaks were ! Every kid was later searching for these cute little modaks. But they were finished in a blink of an eye. Everyone just loved them even the adults. I was hearing my name from every corner of the house that my modaks were a huge hit. Superb looking & Super tasty as well.

                          Sharing my super hit recipe of assorted modak with you all as well. Try it this Ganpati Visarjan.
 
 

Ingredients:
  • 1 cup Mawa
  • 2 tsp. Sugar or to taste
  • Milk Powder 2 tbsp
  • Cardamom Powder 1 tsp
  • Dry Fruits(Almonds, Pistachios & Cashewnuts) chopped roughly 2 tbsp
  • Coco Powder 1 tbsp.
Method:
 
              Mix Mawa with sugar & heat. The sugar starts to melt. Heat it till all moisture is evaporated & it becomes little dry. Add Milk powder to it. Mix well. Switch off the heat & let it cool down. Once the mixture cools down, Divide the mawa mixture in 2 parts.
  • Simple Dry Fruits Mawa Modak
    • Take one part of mawa mixture. Add to it cardamom powder & chopped dry fruits (1 & 1/2 tbsp). Mix well.
    • Now make small round balls from it almost 1 cm in diameter. Keep half of this balls for dual colored modaks aside for later use.
    • Take the modak moulds. Place each ball in the mould. Close the mould & press it. Remove the extra from bottom of the modak mould. Now open it again & remove the formed modak carefully. Do this for rest of the balls.

  • Chocolate Modak
    • Take the other part of mawa mixture.
    • Mix with it coco powder & remaining dry fruits. Mix well.
    • Form small balls out of this dough around 1 cm in diameter. Keep half of this balls for dual colored modaks aside for later use (along with the left over dry fruits modak balls.)
    • Take the modak moulds. Place each ball in the mould. Close the mould & press it. Remove the extra from bottom of the modak mould. Now open it again & remove the formed modak carefully. Do this for rest of the balls.
 
  • Dual Colored Modak
    • Take the leftover both colored balls which we kept aside.
    • Take one white colored & chocolate colored ball together. Stick it to each other & form a ball out of it. (We don't want to mix it with each other. We want to see the dual colors.)
    • Place that dual colored ball in the modak mould. Close & Press it. Remove the extra from the bottom of the modak mould. Open the mould & remove the formed carefully. Your dual colored modak is ready. Do the same with remaining ones.
