Ingredients

  • 2 cups ricotta cheese highly recommend Galbani brand
  • ½ cup heavy cream highly recommend Horizon brand
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon cardamom powder
  • 1 teaspoon ghee

Optional Garnish

  • 6 pistachio thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon dried rose petals

Instructions

  1. In a non-stick pan, add ricotta cheese and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly for about 5-7 minutes to eliminate excess moisture.
  2. Then, add the heavy cream and mix thoroughly. Reduce the heat to low and keep stirring until the mixture thickens and starts pulling away from the sides of the pan, which should take around 10-12 minutes.
  3. Once thickened, lower the heat further and mix in the powdered sugar and ground cardamom, ensuring the sugar dissolves completely. Continue cooking until the mixture reaches a dough-like consistency and comes together.
  4. Stir in ghee, mix well, and turn off the heat. Transfer the mixture to a plate and spread it out to let it cool.
  5. Take small portions of the cooled mixture and roll them into smooth balls to shape your laddus. For an optional garnish, sprinkle thinly sliced pistachios and dried rose petals on top, gently pressing them down with your finger. Repeat the rolling process with the remaining mixture.

Notes

  • Make sure to keep stirring the ingredients and cook on low heat to maintain the white color of the laddu.
