Dry Fruits Laddoo

Diwali is around the corner and still, no such preparations 😛 Missing home so badly. Preparing sweets and cleaning was never my cup of tea as being a bit lazy. But staying away from home can make you do that 😛 As I was done with cleaning part last week only so now tried making sweets for Diwali.

Indian festivals are incomplete without sweets Specially Diwali. Diwali means preparing traditional sweets, lighting diyas, making rangolis and dressing up 😉 Distributing sweets to friends and neighbors is a tradition in India.

Everybody would be busy in preparing sweets, namkeens etc etc for Diwali. So to start with I made dry fruits laddoo. Dry fruits laddoo is the easiest sweet to prepare. A Festival sweet that can be prepared within minutes.

1 Cup mixed dry fruits
