Milk Mava Powder Modak (खवा पावडर मोदक)

Every year when I visit my friends’ place for ganpati, I try to make homemade “prasad” to offer bappa. This year I made these super easy milk mava powder modak. It hardly takes half an hour to make these sweet delicious modaks. I have made them in four different flavours. You can customise them as per your choice of flavour.

Ingredients

Makes 5-6 modak

For Chocolate modak
Milk mava powder 1 cup
Cocoa powder 1 tsp
Milk ½ cup + 2 tbsp
Powdered Sugar ¾ cup, add more or less as required

For Rose modak
Milk mava powder 1 cup
Rose syrup 2 tbsp
Milk ¼ cup
Powdered Sugar 1-2 tbsp if required, as rose syrup is already sweet

For Kesar modak
Milk mava powder 1 cup
Milk ½ cup
Kesar strands ½ tsp, add them to milk and keep it aside to release flavour and color
Powdered Sugar ¾ cup

Recipe (same for all)

1. Mix milk mava powder and milk and make lump free paste in a pan. (for chocolate flavour add cocoa powder and extra milk)

2. Cook on a medium flame till it starts to come together and starts to become dry. It takes around 8-10 mins.

3. Take it out from flame and add sugar and mix. Let it cool down. 

4. Now you can use modak mould to make modak.
