Recipe for Chocolate Nan Khatai

Ingredients

  • Flour 2 cups
  • Semolina 1/4 cup
  • Cocoa powder 1 tbsp
  • Baking soda 1/4 tsp
  • Vanilla essence 1/2 tsp
  • Icing sugar 1-1/4 cups
  • Ghee or melted butter 3/4 cup
  • Yogurt 2 tbsp

Cooking Directions

Separate clumps of flour and baking soda.

Blend sugar, ghee, vanilla essence and yogurt till smooth.

It is important you really combine well.

Add sieved ingredients and semolina to sugar-ghee mixture.

Dough should be kneaded well for at least 7-8 minutes.

If dough is not stiff enough to roll out into balls, add few tbsp of cold milk and chill for few minutes. Divide into two parts.

Take one part of dough and add cocoa powder and knead till it is well combined, add little milk if required.

Make small balls of this dough. Keep aside.

Shape remaining dough into small balls and roll each of them it into thick cylindrical shape.

Now place cocoa flavoured ball on surface.

Along edges of this cocoa coloured ball, roll cylindrical shaped white dough and gently flatten.

Garnish with almonds or pistachios or cashews on top of each flattened ball by slightly pressing into the dough.

Place one greased tray with enough space between each ball as they spread out.

Bake at 180 degrees C for about 20-22 minutes.

Once baked, nan khatai will be soft.

Remove from oven and cool and they will harden.

Cool on a wire rack and store in airtight container.
