Hi,I tried this recipe with fine besan , so they turned out as smooth barfis. Taste is good but the roughness is missing
                                   Love good recipes

Divine, fab and one of the best desserts i have eaten. The softness, flavors and sweetness is just perfect. The besan melts into your mouth and there is a lingering feeling of cardamom after each bite you have and the almonds provide the ideal balance.
