Milk based desserts
If you don't already know.......I LOVE milk!! I also have a horrible sweet tooth!!! I'm at my happiest with any dessert and and a big jug of milk and large glass. Not your regular 250 ml glass......but my special, "MILK" glass that is 3 times the size of your regular glass.
Since I love milk, and I love desserts, its only natural that my favorite desserts are milk based.
My all time favorite 'sweet thang' is ice cream!! Did you know that there are people in this world who are paid to taste test new ice cream flavours. Hello!? My dreeeeam job!!!
I also love Ras Malai. For all you non desi?s, Ras Malai consists of white round shaped ball (made by boiling milk and then separating the cream from the water using vinegar) in a delicious sweet milk syrup. Mmmm, yummy in my tummy!
Another favorite of mine is kheer. Yet another desi dessert which is made of milk and has the consistency of custard. It is best with crushed almonds and pistachios.
A delicious milk dessert that I tried at a posh desi restaurant in England is Faluda. You have not lived if you have not tried Faluda!! It is a milk drink with vermicelli at the bottom....sort of like lassee (yoghurt milkshake) but way better!! It also has pistachios and these tiny little clear coloured round things in it....have no clue what it is but it?s what makes Faluda very unique indeed.
Other desserts that I love are kulfi (a desi milk popsicle, very creamy!), barfi (creamy milk and sugar cut into cubes) and custard mixed with anything!!
So.......what are your favorite milk desserts?! :)

Mix 700 g crushed tea biscuits with 1/2 cup butter. Add three egg yolks, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 medium container sour cream and one can crushed pineapple (with the juice). Mix it all together and place in a nice dish. If you like you can layer the top with whip cream. Chill in fridge and serve. I'm telling you......its soooooo good!
