Recipe Instructions:
-
Begin by mashing the cottage cheese and khoya together until you achieve a smooth consistency. This forms the creamy base of our burfee. ๐ง๐ช
-
Next, using a mixer, blend in the condensed milk and all-purpose flour until well combined. This step adds sweetness and structure to our mixture. ๐ฅ๐ฐ
-
Now, itโs time to introduce the star ingredient โ the powdered pistachios! Add them to the mixture and give it a good mix. ๐๐ฅ
-
Once all the ingredients are thoroughly incorporated, transfer the mixture to a thick-bottomed vessel. This will ensure even cooking and prevent any sticking or burning. ๐ณ
-
Cook the mixture over a low flame, stirring continuously, until it thickens and forms a cohesive ball. This process requires patience but promises a rich, decadent texture. โณ๐ฅ
-
Once the mixture reaches the desired consistency, remove it from the heat and promptly pour it onto a lightly greased tray. Spread it evenly to achieve a thickness of about 1/2 inch. โจ๐ฌ
-
Allow the burfee to cool for 4-5 hours at room temperature. This crucial step allows it to set properly and develop its characteristic firmness. ๐โ๏ธ
-
Once cooled and set, cut the burfee into squares using a sharp knife. Each piece is a bite-sized delight waiting to be savored! ๐ฐ๐ช

Serve your delectable Indian Pista Burfee with pride, and watch as it disappears within moments! Enjoy the fusion of creamy textures and nutty flavors. ๐คค๐
