Chocolate Gulab Jamuns
This recipe is the old sweet dish Gulab Jamun but with a new twist: Chocolate Gulab Jamuns. The bitter dark chocolate insides is a perfect balance to the sweetness of Gulab jamuns outside. Also I made these with milk powder which was new for me, and they turned out to be very soft and spongy. All were surprised and asked me for the recipe. So here it is a sweety savory juicy snack which a favorite dessert of all added with a fusion of western chocolate and Indian Gulab jamun !
