Kalakhand Milk Cake Barfi

This sweet dish is the perfect sweet that you would buy in South India. It transports me to the sweet shops in India where they are made with pure ghee (clarified butter). Almost everyone of my American friends asks for this easy and delicious recipe!!! If you like cheesecake you will LOVE this sweet. I learned to make this from my wonderful MIL!!
