Dedicating this most loved special dessert to my loving Amma.
Gulab Jamoon…just the name itself makes us go crazy right? Its one of the easiest dessert that can be prepared for almost any occasions. I tried it with store-bought Kova and it tasted amazing with rose scented syrup. We love to taste these spongy..balls with gajar halwa, vanilla ice cream or with fresh cream.
