Notes

  • No extra sugar has been added here. As the milk powder already has sugar. Do add sugar if using unsweetened milk powder.
  • Always use non-fibrous, sweet mangoes while making any sweet or beverage.
  • Use canned mango pulp if fresh ones are not available.
  • Use a nonstick pan to avoid sticking to the pan. However, any pan can be used.
  • While cooking makes sure not to overcook. As overcooking may make these chewy.
  • Any dry fruits and nuts could be used for garnishing.
  • Storage: These mango sweets could be easily stored for a week when refrigerating in an airtight container.
