Kalakand found its origins in northern India, and today it is popular throughout the country, no matter where you go. Not only that, chances are, if you visit an Indian sweet shop in other countries, you will most likely find it there too.

Today, I want to show you guys how to make this sweet dish without taking up too much of your time and effort. As with any other recipes, the key to quick, tasty preparation of delicious food is using the right ingredients and in the right proportions. So, make sure you do just that while preparing Kalakand as well. One other thing that you should keep in mind is to use some deep plates to be able to make some thicker pieces of this sweet.
