Mohanthal is a Gujarati cuisine dessert, I never know a North Indian Sweet will taste this much mild in sweetness. The coarse texture of the sweet is the main hit. When I read the recipe in the book I have no idea on this sweet. After following the steps as mentioned in the book, the recipe turned out delicious..
I prepare this Delicious sweet for the sssshhhh cooking challenge, For the month of March I was paired with Priya, Writer of Priyasmenu page. She gave Nuts and Besan as my secret ingredient. I chose Moohanthal Recipe From Gujarati Cusine. A Rich Dessert will mild sweet taste. Gujarati Is a Western state in India. Many Gujarati dishes are distinctively sweet, salty, and spicy simultaneously. To know more about Gujarati Details check Here.
In my first attempt I add some excess ghee, but that ghee ooze out in the last stage and it was not setting at all. In the second time I used the exact measurement as mentioned, then it came out like a charm. No one believe, a rich dessert will be this much mild in sweet. Try this super textured rich dessert and share us with your experience.

“Mohanthal”
Mohanthal is one of those sweets that I can eat without a break. I like its crispy texture and of course the aroma of ghee, Your version is just perfection itself!!
Wanting to make this. It’s in my to do list. Your looks fantastic ?
I have always loved this recipe and your version looks awesome..!Bookmarking the recipe Sujitha!
What an ultimate sweet, its simply irresistible with prefect texture and colour, yours looks fantabulous sis. You nailed it prefectly..
The Mohanthal looks utterly delicious.. lovely share on the theme
Super tempting and it has come out perfect. I love mohanthal and sometimes when guests come over for lunch or dinner we serve hot mohanthal. Instead of setting it in the tray its served like how you would serve halwa.
Just the thought of saffron and rose water coming together is enough to tempt me to make this sweet at the earliest. And I do like the recipes in the book Gujarati Kitchen, I find them easy to follow and authentic too.
