I was invited to a religious function and I had just a couple of effective hours of notice. I had in my mind that I should make some dessert which suits the occasion. Then I looked through some versions of kalakand which I have in my files and figured out this instant variety which could be made in under 30 min. Luckily I had some home made paneer which I could use.
It turned out that the sweet was a super hit with the little kids who were there at the venue. So I believe that this is a crowd pleaser as well as kid friendly.
So for Day 1 week 4 of BM #34, here is a kid approved sweet suitable for many occasions. Also sending this to Srivalli's 'Kid's Delight - Festival Sweets' hosted by Sowmya
Ingredients -
Homemade khoya 3/4 cup
Homemade Paneer from 1 ltr milk
Condensed Milk 1/4 cup
Cardamom Powder
Ghee to grease the pan
Pistachios for garnish
Method Of Preparation -
Add all the ingredients in a heated non-stick pan and keep stirring.
After about 8-10 minutes, the mixture will come together as a single mass.
Remove onto a greased pan and let it set for a few minutes. Sprinkle some chopped pistachios.
Cut into desired shapes and refrigerate before serving!

Hi Harini,
Thanks for sharing the recipe. Kalakand is a popular sweet but never attempted at home. But I noticed that apart from condensed milk, you didn't have sugar measurement. Is the sugar in condensed milk sufficient?
@Deepa,
Thanks for your comment. The sugar in the condensed milk was more than sufficient for the whole batch. In fact we felt it was a little too sweet for us but the kids and guests loved it as is. So feel free to add more condensed milk for the extra sweetness if you prefer.
Perfectly made kalakand,looks so tempting..
