Almond-Anjeer Chocolate Laddu - Microwave Version

This Recipe came out as an accident, actually i was toasting nuts for something, but they ended up as Laddu's.  The final product was very good, even my picky, Not-So-Easy-to-Impress Little Devil also liked it.

Ingredients

1/2 cup Chopped Almonds

2-3 Dried Figs, Chopped

1/2 cup Sugar

2 pods of Cardamom

2 tbsp of Cocoa Powder

1 tsp Ghee/Clarified Butter

Method

In a MW safe bowl, add ghee, almonds and chopped figs. Cook @ high for 3 minutes, tossing them every 1 minute. Once they are well toasted, let them cool. In a Mixer, take the toasted nuts, Sugar, Cardamom and Grind them to fine powder. While grinding itself, u can see the mixture coming together. Transfer the grounded mixture to a flate plate, add cocoa powder and mix well. 

Shape them to balls. Tada!!! Laddu Ready, that too healthy, tasty and definitely Low in calories and High in Nutrition!!! Kids will Definitely love this, since i have seen the results in my Kid!!! He helped himself with another serving too!!! The Above measurements make approximately 8-9 Laddus!!!
