Peda is a Indian sweet which is believed as a Prasad. A well known peda is made from khoya. Making khoya is very laborious task. We all know about the khoya that is available in market nowadays. The quality of mithais( sweets) and khoya that is available in markets is questionable. The quality of peda will suffer accordingly.
Pedas are delicious and believed to be offered to lord krishna. These pedas have many variation and available in different flavors, shapes and colours.
I am sharing here a extremely easy method of making peda. That is with milk powder and condensed milk. Adding condensed milk to the pedas will give it a nice chewy texture, which make these pedas unique and tongue tickling. After trying this peda you will never hesitate to make this detectable sweet again and again at home.
