- Soak almonds in hot water for 20–30 minutes, peel the skins, and grind them with milk into a smooth paste.
- Heat ghee in a nonstick pan over medium heat.
- Add the almond-milk paste and cook, stirring continuously, until it thickens slightly.
- Stir in the sugar and continue cooking until the mixture leaves the sides of the pan and forms a soft dough.
- Add cardamom powder (if using) and mix well.
- Transfer the mixture onto a greased plate or parchment paper and spread evenly.
- While still warm, cut into squares, diamonds, or shape into small balls.
- Allow the candies to cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
Notes
-
Use full-fat milk for a richer, creamier texture.
-
If you prefer a quicker version, substitute almond flour instead of soaking and grinding almonds.
-
Stir constantly while cooking to prevent the mixture from sticking or burning.
-
The candy sets quickly once removed from the pan—have your plate or parchment ready in advance.
-
Garnish with chopped pistachios or saffron strands for a festive touch.
-
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
