Festive Makhan Mishri Modak

In a small bowl, whip the fresh homemade white butter using a spatula until it achieves a completely smooth, uniform, lump-free, and velvety consistency.

Add the coarsely crushed mishri crystals, cardamom powder, and saffron-infused milk directly into the whipped butter. Fold gently until everything is evenly combined.

Lightly grease a clean modak mold with a drop of ghee. Pack the prepared Makhan-Mishri mixture tightly into the mold cavity, embedding a small mix of chopped nuts right into the center as a rich filling surprise.

Close the mold tightly, clean off any excess mixture from the edges, and place the mold inside the deep freezer for 15–20 minutes to solidify the dairy shape.

Gently un-mold the solid modaks onto your final presentation plate. Garnish the crowns with slivered pistachios and a fresh tulsi leaf before serving cold as sacred Prasad.
