    Few weeks back, when we went to our near by bakery. I was looking at their sweets section. I found a lovely looking orange colour burfi on their sweets array. Loved it so much, i bought couple of pieces for taste. When i came home, i tasted it and it was like kalakand. I am sure they used chenna in that. I wanted to try my version if it.

     
    This is the recipe which i came up with and it turned out to be good..Hope you will love it and let me know how it turned out for you.
