Well this is not necessarily CKP or even Maharashtrian, it's north indian aate ke laddo, a favourite of my husband's. Maybe it IS essentially ckp, since ckpees are known to have been absorbing food and culture from around them for centuries now. :)
Ingredients:
1. Organic whole wheat flour, 4 cups
2. Ghee, melted, 2 cups
3. Crushed nuts and seeds (almonds/walnuts/cashew/pine/hazel/any/all....half cup)
4. Cardomom, crushed fine, 1/2 tspn
5. Nutmeg, grated fine, pinch
6. Sugar, powdered, 2 cups
7. Milk, half cup
Procedure:
1. Mix ingredients 1 and 2 in a bowl and roast in a tray in oven at 150 deg celcius for 45 min. Mixture should turn golden brown and give off a heavenly aroma by now.
2. Take out of oven and let cool
3. Mix ingredients 3-6 to the golden brown mass.
4. Add milk, spoon by spoon until mixture comes together in your hands. (Note, add only as much milk as required)
5. Laadoo valaa! Make balls of the mixture and press them within your palms to bind well.
Eat them up and share them with family and friends! These are lovely to eat in winter. :) Be sure to run an extra kilometre the next day!
