INGREDIENTS USED IN NO-OVEN ONE BOWL RASMALAI MILK CAKE

  • Sugar

In the rasmalai milk cake, sugar sweetens the cake base and balances the richness of the milk syrup. It also slightly caramelizes during baking, enhancing the cake’s flavor.

  •  All-Purpose Flour

Flour is the backbone of the cake, giving it structure. It helps create a soft, spongy texture that’s perfect for soaking up the saffron-infused milk.

  • Milk

Milk is a key ingredient in both the cake batter and the ras (syrup). In the batter, it provides moisture and flavor. Once the cake is baked, it’s soaked in milk that’s been infused with saffron and cardamom, creating that signature rasmalai taste.

  • Rose Water

Rose water adds a delicate floral note, enhancing the dessert’s fragrance and giving the cake that classic, aromatic feel you expect from traditional Indian sweets.

  • Cardamom

Cardamom brings a warm, fragrant spice to the cake and the milk syrup, adding depth and a slight hint of citrus. It’s a must-have for achieving the authentic flavor of rasmalai.

  • Saffron

Saffron threads are steeped in warm milk to infuse their golden color and luxurious flavor into the cake’s syrup. This gives the dessert its distinctive appearance and a rich, fragrant taste.

  • Leavening Agent

A leavening agent is essential to making the cake rise and develop a light, airy texture. This ensures the cake remains soft and spongy, ideal for soaking up the milk syrup without becoming too dense.

EQUIPMENT USED FOR MAKING NO-OVEN ONE BOWL RASMALAI MILK CAKE

This one bowl rasmalai milk cake comes together in minutes and needs just one bowl and a few measuring cups and measuring spoons to make.
