Description

Combining three classic desserts together to be served as one is what is done here in style. I am sure most of the households in India celebrate festival’s with carrot halwa and gulab jamoon. Here I have made edible cups with the carrot halwa, topped it with a scoop of icecream and garnished it with a mini gulab jamoon. This match made in heaven divine combination is a never fail killer trio. As I was writing the recipe, I had my friends help me out. The entire gang was drooling and excited about it. They still have not got their share. I am yet to treat them. I was not very confident with making the edible cups with carrot halwa but believe me it’s easier to make than to be imagined as a hard task to master.I assure you any where served it will be a super hit. To more edgy recipes that can be done at home in restaurant style.. let’s do a hip hip hurray and celebrate the dessert.
