It is weekend and I planned to surprise my kid by cooking simple kid friendly recipes and engage her in other house help activities. My kid always loves to help me in baking and this time she helped me in mixing and rolling of these tiny laddus.
This laddu just uses three ingredients. All I did was just roasting the sesame seeds and groundnuts. Rest of the steps were taken care by my little madam and she was more interested in eating as she was helping me.
This laddu perfectly fit for a kid’s snackbox and good way of gaining the health benefits from dates, Peanut and Sesame or till seeds.
