I don’t have modak mould so made with hands. Shape is not perfect but believe me, taste is too good. Try it, it will be lip-smacking and loved by kids and adults both.

Quick dry fruit modak
My daughter called me and said she just bought some delicious Gulkand stuffed chocolate modak. I don’t know how they made it. Now here is my version of delicious Gulkand stuffed chocolate modak.
Have some biscuit crumb in your pantry? No don’t discard you can make this yummy modak with biscuit crumb. I have used digestive biscuit crumb but you can use whatever you have. I have used homemade khoya or dried milk. But you can also use store bought, just grate it before using.
Recipe
Khoya – 1 cup, crumbled or grated
Condensed milk – 4 tablespoon
Cocoa powder – 1 & 1/2 tablespoon
Milk – 1/3 cup
Biscuit crumb – 3/4 cup
Ghee – 1 teaspoon + for greasing the mould
Gulkand as require
Method
1. Heat 1 teaspoon ghee or clarified butter in a heavy bottom or nonstick pan.
2. Add khoya or dried milk and roast on low heat till dried up. Stir continuously to avoid sticking to the bottom.
3. Now add condensed milk, cocoa powder, milk and biscuit crumb. Mix well.
4. Stir constantly and cook on low flame till the mixture leaves the sides and becomes like a dough.
5. Don’t overcook or make it too dry. It should be just like a smooth dough.
Let the mixture cool down.
6. Knead the dough with your hand to make smooth. Now make small balls. Flatten the ball with your palm and place little Gulkand at the middle.
7. Bring the edges together and close the ball.
8. Shape the modak with your hand or greased modak mould. Serve or keep in refrigerator to serve chilled. It will be delicious in both ways.
Notes
1. If you want your modak more sweet, then you can add 1 tablespoon more condensed milk.
2. You can use grated dark chocolate instead of cocoa powder.
