Milk Barfi Recipe | Plain Milk Burfi Recipe | Doodh Ki Mithai with step-by-step photo and video recipe. Barfi recipes are common sweets during the festival season and are particularly made as offerings or to share with friends. The most common are the coconut or the besan-based indian fudges but can be made with other creamy ingredients. One such easily available ingredient is full cream milk in almost all Indian kitchens and hence I am sharing a simple barfi recipe with milk.

Diwali festival is around the corner and most of us are getting ready for it by preparing sweets, snacks and also new clothes. With respect to sweets, we always look for something easy and simple recipe, yet it must be considered a premium sweet. Most of the premium sweets are either complex to make or may require some fancy ingredients to make. Hence I thought of making a creamy barfi recipe with a basic ingredient available in all our kitchens. it is none other than full-cream milk. So basically I have evaporated the milk to form the milk solids and added full cream milk powder to get the crumbly texture. As an alternative to milk solids, you can use store-bought khoya or mawa to have the same result. This should easily cut down the stirring process.

Furthermore, I would like to add some more tips, suggestions and variations to the instant milk barfi recipe. firstly, you need to use full cream milk for this recipe. do not even attempt it with skim milk as it would take more time to evaporate and also end up with fewer solids. Secondly, if you need a moist barfi, then make sure not to overcook the burfi mixture. The below-mentioned quantity would yield a moist one. but if you overcook, you may end up with chewy burfi. Lastly, you may top this barfi with a choice of dry fruits. My personal favourite combination is pistachios and almonds. But you may extend it to tutti frutti, cherries and even to peanuts and cashew nuts.
