Instructions

Prepare the coffee decoction in a South Indian traditional filter by adding 5 tblsp of coffee powder in a coffee filter. Press the powder and add hot water. Let it brew. It would take around 15 minutes roughly.
Take a microwave safe bowl, add 4 tblsp ghee, milk powder and condensed milk.
Mix well with a spoon. The entire milk powder must be combined well with the condensed milk and ghee.
Microwave for 1 minute. Take out and mix well.
Add cocoa powder, 1 tblsp 1st degree filter coffee decoction and 30 ml of water.
Microwave for 1 minute. When you take out, it would have doubled up. Stir and mix well. Check the taste. Add coffee decoction if you want it to be stronger.
Reheat again for 2 more times. Take out at 1 minute intervals and stir well. The peda mix will come up every time but it will not be double like the first time.
At the end of 4th minute, take out and add 1 tblsp of ghee and mix well.
Microwave for 1 more minute and take out. This time the peda mix will not come out. However it would still be soft. Mix well and allow it to cool to a temperature which you can handle to make peda’s. Roughly 6 to 10 minutes.
Apply ghee in your palms . Shape and roll it like a peda.
Stuff each peda with a roasted almond.
