Sweet ammini kozhukattai recipe, Ganesh chaturthi recipes
Sweet ammini kozhukattai, mani kozhakattais made using left over kozhukattai dough and sweet poornam. We always make spicy version of ammini kozhukattai and it is my personal favorite too. I have posted 2 varieties of spicy ammini kozhukattai, but want to give it a try on sweet version too. This Ganesh Chaturthi 2018, i wanted to post some simple kozhakattai recipes. Recently i met a bachelor friend, who was telling that she wants to make modak as she loves it but don't have the patience or time to sit and do the shape. I told her to use the modakam mould which is quite easy. She immediately told that she doesn't have the mould too. After coming home, i was thinking about that then the idea of sweet ammini kozhukattai, which i have seen in many websites came to my mind. Definitely in no way it will match the traditional modakam, but to satiate the cravings of the kozhukattai, you can try this one. You can use store bought rice flour or idiyappam flour for making this. If you live in a place where you won't get fresh coconut, you follow the poornam recipe, following my modakam using desiccated coconut. Enjoy the festival without missing the festival food.

Whole wheat coconut cookies recipe with step by step pictures, crispy coconut cookies. Some time back i tasted a coconut cookies from Haldirams and it was too delicious. I have posted an eggless coconut cookies recipe few years ago. Few days back while meeting up with some friends, they were talking about the celebration of Ganpati in their place. Generally in South India we make modakam, ulundu kozhukattai, sundal, vadai and payasam for Ganesh Chaturthi. But in Maharastra, apart from making the traditional Ukadiche modak, they make varieties of sweets, pedas and even cookies for this festival. Also i have seen kids cut birthday cake for Ganesha. I really love the way kids do the pooja everyday and enjoy the festivity. Though i have few innovative ideas for kozhakkati stufing, i am pretty sure, they are hardly tried by anyone at home as we make only the traditional stuff. So decided to post this delicious whole wheat coconut cookies. I tried this recipe from here . Make this eggless whole wheat coconut cookies and let me know how it turned out.
