Leftover mithai cake eggless recipe with step wise pictorial and video method.

A delicious eggless cake made with leftover sweets and asks for no additional sugar, no oil, butter or ghee and even no essence or cardamom powder.

This is such an easy cake recipe we have ever tried which asks for most minimal ingredients.

Sugar is not added because sweets are already having sugar. Also oil or butter are not required because sweets are made using ghee and that’s enough for the cake. And lastly here it is essence. This too is not needed because sweets are generally flavoured with cardamom powder and saffron and that will work as a flavouring agent in cake as well.

This cake is so mildly sweet and a perfect treat with a cup of tea. If you like to have sweetness on higher side, can add 2-3 tbsp more while making the batter

This is the month of November and Diwali has just passed on two days ago. And immediate thereafter after a gap of one day, it was the festival of bhaidooj.

Exchange of gifts alongwith sweets is a part and parcel of Indian culture since ages. You cannot imagine these two festivals, though there are others too, without sweets.

We ourself buy the sweets from market, some make their own sweets at home as well and few is being received from the relatives and friends as well.

So during these days, whenever you open the refrigerator, fridge is loaded with lots of sweets. Lol.

Initially the excitement of eating these sugary treasures is unparalleled but then, there comes a point when a lingering question arises: what to do with the surplus mithai because you are already fed up eating such stuff repeatedly.

Worry not, for there exists a creative and delectable solution – the Leftover Mithai Cake.

This cake is a real example of tradition meets innovation. This ingeniously crafted creation not only rescues leftover sweets from potential neglect but also transforms them into a decadent and visually appealing treat.

The process of crafting a Leftover Mithai Cake is a celebration in itself. Each variety of mithai contributing its unique flavor and texture to the final masterpiece.

In conclusion, the Leftover Mithai Cake emerges as a delightful solution to the post-celebration conundrum, transforming surplus sweets into a culinary spectacle.
