I have always loved dry fruits and Indian sweets made from them, especially cashew barfi or dry fruit barfi. I used to eagerly wait for Krishna Janmashtami in my childhood and made 3-4 ladoos of Chakkuli and Kadubu that day. These laddus were offered to Krishna Lord at the time of worship as Naivedyam. They were served to us after the puja and I was eagerly waiting for this moment.

 Dry fruit ladoo is the most nutritious recipe in Indian Deserts, which also has low calories. Sugar or jaggery syrup is not used in it. The water in it is available from dry fruits and the amount of vitamin E, iron, magnesium and beta carotene in dry fruits is high.
