- 4 tsp (10gms) cocoa powder
- 1tbsp (12gms) jaggery
- 2tbsp (15gms) chopped pistachios
- 1tbsp (7gms) shredded coconut
- In a saucepan over low medium heat add condensed milk, milk powder, cardamom powder, and ghee.
- Give this a good mix and cook it till the mixture becomes thick. Mix it continuously so that nothing burns from the bottom.
- Once thick, divide the mixture into two equal halves and put each half in a separate bowl.
- In one of the bowl, add in cocoa powder and mix that in as well. This will be the shell for the chocolate modak.
- Let the mixtures cool down a little in their two bowls.
- To make the filling, simply combine crushed pistachios, jaggery powder and shredded coconut.
- take a portion of the modak mixture and shape it into a rough sphere. Push down the sphere into the mould and make a well in the center.
- Fill half of the center with the filling and cover the top of the mould with some more modak mixture.
- Gently open the mould and demould the modak.
- Garnish with golden leaf or as you wish.
- Enjoy!
