Coconut Ladoo ( Laddu) With Condensed Milk | Coconut ladoo Recipe


Coconut ladoo with step by step photos

Hello friends, after a short break we are meeting again, because of bad climate, it was very difficult for me to click photos.  Ganesh chathurthi and teachers day comes on the same day this year. My plan is to post a sweet for this special occasion.




    The recipe which I am posting today is a shortcut of the traditional recipe. The traditional way of making coconut ladoos is quite tedious. So we can see a shortcut method here. Before going into the details, I would like to wish all of you a Happy Ganesh chathurthi and of course I would like to thank all of my teachers and wish them all a happy teachers day also.



    Usually, fresh grated coconut is used to make these ladoos and is roasted to decrease the moisture level, to cut off this step, we are using desiccated coconut which is easily available in supermarkets. If not available, just microwave fresh grated coconut for one or two minutes.


    The next ingredient which I am using here is condensed milk. In the traditional method, grated coconut and milk along with sugar are cooked up to such a level that the milk becomes thick and leaves the sides of the pan. As you know, this process is time consuming. So we are using condensed milk and also it will hold the coconut pieces firmly.

    If you want crunch in the ladoos, add some dry fruits, here I am using chopped cashews, it is our choice. Definitely we can think of many of the variations.

    A pinch of cardamom powder is used to get the flavour.   I also used milk powder, this is just to get texture. If you don't have, you can omit it.

     Coconut ladoos - Tips

    • Coconut ladoos can be made with fresh coconut also. In that case roast coconut a bit to reduce the moisture.
    • If the coconut is too coarse, I would suggest to blend a bit in a mixer grinder.
    Happy cooking
