Notes

Use up the milk to make up the consistency,if not add some water for proper consistency to be reached.
The timing may differ from oven to oven .
Soak dates at least for twenty minutes depending on the variety.
But I have soaked it for more than one hour.
When baking always leave gap for raising with suitable container.
Don't use steel tins to cook in microwave,use microwave compatible glass or porcelain.
