Bring the milk to a boil. Mix the custard powder with 1/2 cup milk into a smooth paste and keep aside. To the boiling milk, add the crushed chikki and stir continuously for 4-5 minutes on low flame.
After it gets completely dissolved, add the sago, cardamom powder and sugar. Simmer for a further 4-5 minutes. Now gently pour the custard mix into the milk and continue to stir till it becomes slightly thick.
