INGREDIENTS OF PISTA CHOCO BARFI

7 Servings

1/2 cup powdered pistachios

1 1/2 tablespoon cocoa powder

1 1/2 cup khoya

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1/4 teaspoon green cardamom

2 drops rose essence

2 cup ghee

2 drops edible food color

HOW TO MAKE PISTA CHOCO BARFI

Step 1 / 6 Cook Khoya With Powdered Sugar

Put a deep-bottomed non-stick pan on low to medium flame and add khoya along with powdered sugar in it. Stir continuously and cook the khoya or mawa for about 15 minutes.

Step 2 / 6 Let The Khoya Mixture Cool And Divide Into Two Equal Portions

Once the khoya is cooked, transfer it into a big plate and allow the mixture to cool completely. Divide the mixture into two equal portions.

Step 3 / 6 Mix All The Ingredients In Khoya Mixture Except Cocoa Powder In Half Part

Take one portion of the khoya in a deep bowl and add powdered pistachios, cardamom powder, rose essence and green food colour in it, mix well.

Step 4 / 6 Mix Cocoa Powder In The Other Half

Now, take the other half of khoya in a large bowl and add cocoa powder in it. Mix it well too! Next, put a cling wrap on a wooden board or a flat surface and grease it using ghee.

Step 5 / 6 Spread The Green Mixture And Make Roll Of The Chocolate Mixture

Place the prepared pista mixture over it and spread it evenly using your hands to form a 175 mm × 200 mm (7”× 8”) rectangle. Make a cylinder roll of the chocolate mixture and place it over the pista mixture leaving (1”) side from the bottom. Roll it very tightly with the help of a cling wrap.

Step 6 / 6 Cut Into 15 Slices And Refrigerate

Gently remove the cling wrap to get a roll and cut into 15 equal slices and flatten it very lightly. Refrigerate the slices for 15 minutes. (Optional: You can garnish with chopped pistachios and silver varq and enjoy!)
