No Sugar Saffron Pedas - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    powdered milk, 300 gms
    condensed milk, 150 gms
    butter, 15 gms
    cardamom powder, 5 gms
    saffron, few strands
    milk, about 2 tbsp
Preparation
    Powder a few cardamom pods and leave a few strands of saffron in warm milk.
    Melt the butter in a heavy bottom cooking pot or pan.
    Stir in the milk powder and keep stirring for about 5 mins on slow flame.
    Add the condensed milk slowly and keep stirring till the mixture thickens the leaves sides of the vessel.
    At this point add cardamom powder and saffron milk.
    Keep stirring again till the milk is absorbed and the mixture starts leaving the sides of the vessel again.
    Switch off the gas and leave the mixture for cooling either in the pan or lay it on a plate.
    When the mixture is easy to handle, prepare Pedas by rolling a chunk of the mixture into a ball first and softly flaten it.
    You can garnish the Pedas the way you desire. I used cookie cutters. You can use almonds/pistachio too.
    Store it in an airtight box.
