Mmmmmm! Like Varsha, I also decreased the sugar and butter a bit. I just used butter since I didn't have ghee. I also added some coconut and raisins. This really hit the spot! -
this would be worth 5* if not for the astronomical amount of ghee in the recipe. i reduced it drastically. i reduced the sugar by 1/4cup as well. it was not as rich but still very delicious.

A people's person who never entertains one thing in life -- larger than life EGO of people.
My hobbies are numerous and diverse. They range from being an avid reader to decorating home, loving cats, embroidery, painting, writing poems and letters to friends, endless thinking, collecting candles, music, trying various cuisines and reaching out to people.
I love cooking and devising ways to smash set patterns of cooking. I do not like over use of spices in the cooking and am dead against using readymade or canned ingredients.
Cooking is my favourite prescription for busting all the stress that I accumulate in the work place.
