For the occasion of "Sakat Chauth" many sesame/til varieties are prepared to offer to lord Ganesha in India. The most famous is the "Tilkut" and the other is the"Til Ladoo"!! But for a new sweet dish which is made with sesame seeds , I had made "Sesame chocolates" which my son enjoyed very much!!
"Sesame/til" are natural antioxidants and high in calcium, The oil made from sesame seeds are mostly used for cooking purpose or in for salad dressings because of high antioxidant power. For more information please check"Sesame".
Ingredients:
1 cup milk powder(any brand)
1/2(little more) powdered sugar
1/2 cup melted butter
4 teaspoon cocoa powder
1/2 cup roasted and grounded Sesame seeds
1/4 cup roasted sesame seeds
2-3 tablespoon water
little butter for greasing
Method:
Sieve milk powder and cocoa. Keep them aside.
In a kadahi(wok) heat the butter and mix sugar with it on low flame.
To this add the milk powder&cocoa and mix very well.
Add the powdered sesame seeds and mix it again very nicely.
Add water to make it into a smooth paste.
Remove the chocolate paste from heat and spread a thick layer on a greased plate.
Sprinkle the roasted seeds on the paste and let it cool at room temperature.
Cut pieces of desired size and shape.
