Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup non-fat milk powder
½ cup self-rising flour
2 tablespoons butter, softened
½ cup milk, or as needed
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 cup white sugar
1 cup water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine milk powder and flour in a bowl. Add butter; beat together until creamy and blended. Add just enough milk to make a firm dough. Shape dough into 18 small balls and arrange on the baking sheet.

  • Combine confectioners' sugar, white sugar, and water in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until sugars dissolve and consistency is syrupy, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Transfer gulab to the saucepan; let soak in the warm syrup, at least 10 minutes. Let cool before serving.
