Ingredients
- Ghee – 1/4 tsp
- Chopped mixed dry fruits – 3/4 cup (cashews,almonds, walnuts, pistachios, black & golden raisins)
- Mawa / khoya – 1/4 cup
- Melted white chocoalte – 1/4 cup
- Dried rose petals – 1/4 cup
Method
Step – 1 Roast the Dry fruit
- Heat a non stick pan on low flame and add 1/4 tsp ghee (or butter)
- Next, add 3/4 cup of chopped mixed dry fruits – cashews, almonds, walnuts and pistachios
- Roast them on low flame until slighlty golden and aromatic.
- Now add mawa – 1/4 cup in to the roasted dry fruits. Mix it well and cook it for 4 -5 minutes.
- Lastly add raisins (both black and golden) and saute for another 1 – 2 minutes on low heat until everything combines.
- Now turn off the flame and transfer the mixture to a plate or countertop to cool slightly.
Step – 2 Add white chocoalte
- Once the mixture is warm (not hot), pour in 1/4 cup melted white chocoalte.
- Mix gently so the white chocolate belnds evenly with the dry fruits and mawa.
- You will notice it turning glossy and slightly sticky – that’s when it’s perfect for shapping.
Step – 3 Shape and Decoarate
- While still warm, take small portions of the mixture and roll them into smooth laddus.
- Roll each laddus in dried rose petals, pressing lightly so they stick beutifully to the surface.
- Arrange them on a plate and let them set for about 15 – 20 minutes.

Tips & Tricks –
- Low flame roasting: Always roast dry fruits on low heat to avoid burning.
- Cool before adding chocolate: If the mixture is too hot, the chocolate may seize instead of melting smoothly.
- Mawa substitute: If you don’t have mawa, use milk powder mixed with a spoon of milk or condensed milk.
- Flavour twist: Add a drop of rose essence or cardamom powder for a divine aroma.
- Gifting idea: Place each laddu in a mini cupcake liner and pack them in a decorative box — perfect for festive gifting!
