Badam burfi

Diwali is one of my favourite festival . I tried another version of badam burfi this year and it came out good. I have already shared the recipe of Almond burfi long back .Badam means almonds. When it comes to  making of Indian sweets I still need to master most of the things. Never the less I try and it tastes good . I also tried motichur laddoo which I will share the recipe soon.. Until then please try interesting recipes from geethsdawath.com .  Here’s wishing all my lovely readers Happy and safe Diwali !
