My favorite kind of ladoos is motichoor ladoos. I made this ladoo around diwali, but i didn't get anytime to post this, so now i am posting it..I have one more ladoo recipe to post too.
About Coconut Ladoo Recipe
This ladoo is so simple to make, just take few minutes to whip up. But the taste is just phenomenol. The condensed milk makes it just wow. In my opinion condensed milk is one of the most versatile ingredient to have on hand. Because you could whip up many sweets with that. Check out my 10 min palkova recipe, which i made using that.

Notes
- If you are using fresh grated coconut, They will be in big grates. So i suggest you to take them in a blender and pulse them for a few mins till it is crushed into small tiny bits.
- Adjust the condensed milk as per your taste.
- Rolling the laddu in desiccated coconut is optional.
- You could add cashew powder or any of your favourite nut powders.
- Store in fridge for a 2 hours, so it gets little hard and sets a little.
- Always serve this at room temperature or little cold.
- You can keep this in fridge for upto a week.
