Diwali Sweet | Mysore Pak ✨

It just started out as a routine ghee refill activity which I do every time ghee gets over at home! 🙆🏻‍♀️ But somehow one thing led to another and we homemade some delicious Mysore Pak today!

While the flavor was super authentic, I wasn’t too happy when I tried making pieces of them! But then I thought, who set the standards for shapes anyway?! I see the irregular shapes as a charm of the authenticity of homemaking these treats! ✨

Oh! And did I mention this? It takes only 3 ingredients to make the Mysore Pak!

A festive mood just set in our home today! 🤩

Looking forward to making more sweet treats, From my Kitchen Today, Ghee Mysore Pak! ✨
