Ingredients for Badam Burfi Almond Squares

  • 1 cup blanched almonds
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • Whole Milk
  • 3 tablespoons ghee

How to Make Badam Burfi Almond Squares

  1. Grease an 6x6 inch square baking pan with 1 tablespoon of ghee.
  2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine 1 cup blanched almonds, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup whole milk. Stir continuously.
  3. After 5 minutes of continuous stirring, add 2 tablespoons of ghee.
  4. Continue stirring until the mixture thickens to the consistency of bread dough and begins to pull away from the sides of the pan (approximately 10-15 minutes).
  5. Stir for another 2 minutes to ensure even cooking.
  6. Remove from heat and immediately pour the mixture into the prepared pan.
  7. Gently spread the mixture evenly to create a smooth surface.
  8. Allow the burfi to cool partially for 20 minutes.
  9. Using a sharp knife or pastry cutter, cut the cooled burfi into 1-inch squares.
  10. Allow the burfi to cool completely before storing in an airtight container. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
