RASMALAI

Rasmalai is one of the popular and delicious bengali sweet where rasgullas are soaked in thickened and sweetened milk.

This recipe is favourite of all my three kids. They relish the saffron milk and the spongy flat balls inside.

To get the soft and spongy rasmalai, make sure to use cow milk than buffalo milk, trust me you will get good result.
