This carrot cake is made with an Indian touch !
To be clear,I have included the ingredient used
for make Indian sweets,the mawa/ khova
(thickened evaporated milk).
I have made mawa cakes ,and carrot cakes,but
this time I combined both to get this awesome
sweet cake.
To add to the richness I added powdered
cashewnuts,and reduced flour.
You can use almond meal in place of the
cashewnuts
This can be made as muffins too.
Trust me,it’s really awesome!
