Yes, even i was a bit skeptical when i read cream cheese but they turned out great! The rolling in different toppings really makes the presentation look great! I also used different type of sprinkles besides the coconut flakes and walnuts and they looked marvelous.

How about mini banoffee pies? Or a date and walnut cake? You'll probably have dates leftover from ramadan anyway

Look for Nestle, also in Desi stores or where the "foreign or mexican spices are" in regular grocery stores. Here in the USA I have seen non-fat powdered milk being sold mostly but its not the same as the powdered Nestle which is whole milk.

Oh I'm totally trying this!


Is it one cup each of almonds and pistachios? One or the other? Or half and half?

Gina should we use desiccated, a more powdery and fine coconut or shredded as in coconut strands? Does shredded coconut stick?

^Gina, should the egg be added while the mixture is hot and on stove, or seperately? Wouldn't the egg be raw?
