SOHAN HALWA AND LADDOO CUPCAKES

 SOHAN HALWA AND LADDOO CUPCAKES              ( made in the  airfryer)

Diwali and  Bhai Dooj are the time for  sweets and dry fruits.  But what do you do when these pile up with no one wanting to eat them anymore .Even my help has refused to take them home ( Didi ab aur meetha nahi khaya jata ) . 

        I googled  for recipes with  leftover sweets  and thankfully found a few recipes of  eggless cakes / cupcakes with  leftover laddoos n burfis.  I had a box of besan laddoos and last few pieces of sohan halwa  which I used in the batter  ( instead of custard powder) and for the topping  

            Made a batter with flour ( I have used whole wheat flour/ atta) , baking powder ,  baking soda , yogurt,  sugar  and few  crushed laddoos and sohan halwa  .  I made cupcakes in the airfryer and topped with  laddoo and sohan halwa rabri  , crushed laddoos and dry fruits 

Here goes the recipe of my   sohan halwa and laddoo cupcakes

Then I browsed through more recipes n also read the comments section . I was surprised that it's been done since the world war when commodities like eggs and milk were rationed . The mayo substituted for these . I wanted to bake this cake . But the hitch was mayo . First issue was would eggless mayo work for the recipe . The second problem was the taste .

Finally I decided to make a mug cake as a trial cake . if things didn't work out , there would be a small amount of wastage that would be pardonable . The cake  didn't have the  taste of mayo In it . Actually it tasted more like a chocolate cake Flour _1/4 cup Sugar _ 2 tbsp Mayonnaise 1 tbsp ( I used 1 heaped tsp  eggless mayo ) Cocoa powder    1 _ 2 tbsp Coffee powder....
