Ingredients
  

  • 1 Can Milkmaid/Condensed milk
  • 1.5 cup Paneer / cottage cheese tight & crumbled
  • 2.5 tbsp Milk or milk powder
  • Cardamom powder a pinch
  • 1/4 tsp Rose water
  • Nuts as per choice I have used almonds & cashews
  • Oil for greasing

Instructions
 

  • Take a plate and grease it with oil. Keep aside.
  • Chop the nuts and keep aside.
  • Take a tight (not watery) cheese, crumble it and keep aside.
  • Take a heavy bottomed pan and pour milkmaid/condensed milk in it. Place the pan on a low flame.
  • When the milkmaid/condensed milk turns warm, add milk powder and rose water & mix well. No lumps should be there into the mixture.
  • Now add cheese and mix well. keep cooking on a low flame but stir constantly to prevent burning.
  • After sometime, it becomes thick and will begin to leave the sides of the pan.
  • Remove from the heat.
  • Transfer the mixture into a greased plate. Spread it evenly and smoothen its top.
  • Sprinkle cardamom powder and nuts over the hot mixture so that it will stick to it properly.
  • Let it cool. When the mixture will come to room temperature, shift the plate to refrigerator to get the kalakand firm.
  • Your kalakand is ready. Cut into squares.
