Khoya sweet recipe/Toffee-khoya burfi/Khoya with palm sugar

khoya sweet recipePalm sugar or panakarkandu is murky,cloudy kind of sugar got from palm tree.These days we use refined sugar,but in those days they used palm sugar in abundance even for making sweets.It is stickier than cane sugar and also healthier than normal white sugar with loads of calcium in it.When I tried this khoya sweet recipe the result was like this,it was sticky,gooey and tasted like a toffee.

khoya sweet recipe“Tat-ta-daaa” I named this Khoya sweet recipe as Toffee-khoya burfi.The color of the sweet came out brown because of palm sugar but the taste was just “out of the world”. I feel the taste of palm sugar is more delectable than white sugar even though its color is not appealing.I have used sugarless khoya which gives main body to the whole recipe.Kesar or saffron is another main ingredient which gives a notable aroma and flavor to this awesome dish.Toffee-khoya burfi is slightly chewy and flavorsome that every sweet craving person will appreciate it by all means.

Sugarless khoya – 1 cup
Palm sugar – 200 grams

    What a beautiful sweet! I love the taste of pannakalkandu. My mother brings me a few here to eat when you have a bad cough. If she gets me some this year I will try this 🙂
