7 cup Sweet for Diwali
Ingredients needed
Bengal gram flour / kadalai mavu / besan – 1 cup
Ghee – 1 cup (melted)
Grated coconut – 1 cup
Milk – 1 cup
Sugar – 2 3/4 cups (Add 3 cups if you want it very sweet)
Cashew nuts – 8-10
Preparation
Grease a tray with ghee and keep it ready.
Dry grind cashew nuts coarsely.
Sieve besan and keep it ready.
Method
Keep all the ingredients ready, including the greased tray.
Dry roast besan until the raw smell goes. Do not roast too much till it changes color. Switch off the flame.
Add sugar, milk and mix well so that there are no lumps.
Add coarsely ground cashew nuts, grated coconut and mix well.
Add half of the ghee and now switch on the gas. Keep it in medium flame and keep stirring continuously, otherwise it will get burnt.
When the mixture starts to bubble (see pic below), add the rest of the ghee and keep stirring continuously. Scrap the sides of the pan as you stir.
When it is warm, cut it into squares or any shape with a greased knife, but do not remove the pieces in a hurry like I did. Wait for it to cool completely and then remove the slices carefully.
Since this sweet has cashew nuts, coconut and milk in it, children will love this very much, so you can make this easy breezy diwali sweet for your kids also.
Note -You can use any cup for measurement for this recipe.

Hi Padhu…..This is the second time I'm trying this recipe and it came out really well.Planning to carry some for my relatives in the US during our vacation there.Thanks a ton,
Nice recipe akka…….can we use jaggery
What is the shelf life for 7 cup cake, maida burfi and jangiri?
Not more than a week .
hi, i tried this sweet couple of weeks back. It came out well even though i used 2 cups of sugar.
All the recipes are really good. It will be useful if you also mention for how long it can be stored, for the recipes that you post henceforth. Thank you.
Hi Padhu,
Tried this recipe today and it came out very well:) I have tried your other recipes as well and they have all been a hit 🙂 🙂 Thank you for posting such simple yet very tasty recipes 🙂
Is it preheated milk?
It is boiled, lukewarm milk.
Making it for my first year anniversary!!! Tested recipe today. Came out well. Praying it comes out well again for the party!
My hubby has been asking me to make a sweet for the past 1 week and its my close friend's birthday tomorrow .. Tried this sweet today and it came out perfect. oru kallu le rendu manga :p .. I am so happy about it and many thanks to you .. 🙂
Just made this today with dessicated coconut. Turned out great! Thank u. Can u tell me…does it need to be refrigerated?
Not necessary to refrigerate for a week, if done properly.
What if the final product is not properly solidifying and is in a semi liquid form? Any corrective actions?
My end product became semi liquid..what could be the reason behind this? It is not becoming hard to cut into pieces
Then you should cook for some more time.
How many pieces approximately we will get for this quantity ?thanks in advance.
can coconut in the 7 cup cake be replaced with 1 cup cashew powder?
Hi..Can we use naatu chakkarai instead of white sugar
You can use nattu chakkarai for burfi but ensure that it does not have lumps.
Comes out very well each time, the coarse cashew powder is a great twist
Can we replace half the sugar with jaggery, please? I have followed this recipe as it is and it came out super… But just to reduce sugar, I was wondering if i could add jaggery
Yes, you can try it.
Hey Padma madam, Am a big fan of ur recipes, have tried few of them and they turned out excellently well, Thank u , yday i tried 7 Cup barfi and is big hit, thanks to u☺️, Once again thank you very much for ur simple yet wonderful, recipes
Hi thanks for the recipe… when I make it doesnt come out dry instead it’s like wet… what cud have gone wrong?
Thanks for the detailed recipe. Roughly how many pieces I would get? can I get nearly 50 pieces if I take my measurement as 250ml as 1 cup?
