CHOCOLATE ‘N’COCONUT BURFI


This was my innovation.The chocolate layer

was made with dates,cocoa powder,honey,

toasted coconut and walnuts.

The second ( white ) layer was again coconut,

sugar,cashewnuts and a little semolina (which i

opted in the last moment). It looked good with

the contrasts,and tasted good too.

So …for the recipe
