Milkcream or Milk toffee my most favourite Christmas sweet/kuswar .I simply love this right from childhood I still remember I use to gobble so many while helping mom in shaping them..I still do😜😜somethings never change😂 .I have posted the traditional method in the blog earlier which requires constant stirring and lots of patience ,is very time consuming ,the whole process may take about 1 to 1 1/2 hr .My mom still prefers the traditional method though😝 .This version of making Milkcream using condensed milk is comparatively quicker than the traditional one .Many of my friends and cousins have been following this shortcut method and I too was intrigued to try this method I found it pretty easy and it did saved a lot of time . I have been making it since last Christmas . This method is perfect when you have no time at hand and still wanna make some Christmas sweet .
Some more Christmas sweets/kuswar
1 tin condensed milk (400gms)
100 grams powdered cashew
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 tbsp butter
Mix the condensed milk ,powdered cashew and vanilla in a nonstick or a thick bottomed pan .
Switch the flame on a very low heat and place the pan or vessel .
Keep stirring the mixture until it begins to thicken .
Add butter or ghee and mix with a wooden spoon .
You will see that the mixture begins to thicken ,you can check if it's ready by taking a small mixture and roll it in a ball .
If you can shape it to a ball it means it's ready .
Switch the flame off and remove the mixture in a greased thali or plate .
Allow it to cool slightly.
Shape it as you like using silicone or rubber moulds ,you can dust a bit if icing sugar if needed .
If you don't have moulds ,you can pour the cooked mixture on a greased thali or tray and cut into diamond /square shape.
After shaping allow it to dry and then store in air tight container.
Notes
I have used Nestle sweetened condensed milk ,I have tried the same method with amul mithai mate but found Nestle to be a better option
You can also use rose essence or rose water in place of vanilla .This stays well for a week when stored out in an airtight container ,you can store it in the fridge for more than a week if it stays 😁😁in our case I make it 2-3 batches still it's never enough .
