- Nuts as needed (e.g., chopped pistachios, almonds, or cashews)
- Dried rose petals (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preparation: Begin by preparing all your ingredients and utensils to streamline the cooking process.
- Make Custard Mixture: In a bowl, blend the custard powder with a small portion of the 2 cups of milk until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
- Heat Milk: Pour the remaining milk into a saucepan and warm it gently over low heat. Make sure it is warm but not boiling to avoid curdling.

- Combine Custard Mixture with Milk: Slowly pour the custard powder blend into the warm milk while stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
- Cook Custard: Continue to cook the mixture on low heat, stirring frequently until the custard thickens noticeably, becoming creamy and smooth.
- Cool Custard: Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the custard to cool slightly at room temperature so it is warm but not hot for serving.
- Assemble the Dessert: In serving bowls or glasses, arrange a layer of mini rasgullas evenly and pour the slightly cooled custard over them, allowing the rasgullas to soak up the rich custard flavor.
- Garnish: Sprinkle your favorite nuts on top for added crunch and scatter dried rose petals if using, to add an aromatic and visually appealing finish.
