Ingredients

  • Milk – Use whole milk (full-fat milk) to make this dessert. It will give it a rich and creamy texture.
  • Custard Powder – You can make your own custard powder using my homemade custard powder recipe or buy a box.
  • Rasgulla – I used store-bought rasgulla to quicken the process, but you can make them at home.
  • Sugar – Adjust to your taste and preference.
