    First we need to make mawa or khoya and then tbsp. cocoa is added to some part to make the top layer. There are 3 ways to make mawa.

    1. You may also use store bought mawa.
    2. Make your own Mawa by reducing milk. You can reduce the milk while boiling it on a low flame or medium heat with a spoon in the sauce pan. Just stir occasionally, while you cook lunch/dinner. However this is a time taking process.
    3. If you cannot stand for longer time, you can  make instant khoya by using a full cream, milk powder and ghee. Unsweetened mawa is ready in 10 minutes in a steamer and even lesser time in microwave. It can be stored in refrigerator for later usage.
    4. Use condensed milk to thicken the mixture and make it sweet.

    Equipment

    • tray
    • frying pan
    • baking paper / parchment paper

    Ingredients

    plain burfi layer

    • 2 cups mawa
    • ¼ cup cream
    • ⅓ cup sugar ½ cup if you want the base to be more sweet
    • 2 tablespoon ghee

    chocolate layer

    • 1 cups mawa
    • ¼ cup cream
    • ¼ cup cocoa
    • 3 tablespoon sugar
    • 1 tablespoon ghee

    Instructions

    For the plain burfi layer

    • Heat mawa in a pan. Add cream and sugar and cook while stirring slowly.
    • Keep cooking on slow heat and add ghee to it.
    • Cook until it comes together to form a smooth mix. It will resemble condensed milk.
    • Remove and spread it evenly on tray lined with baking sheet or butter paper. Mawa barfi is ready.

    for the chocolate layer

    • Mix the cream with the cocoa powder in a bowl.
    • Heat mawa in a pan with the chocolate cream ,sugar and ghee.
    • Mix all the ingredients and cook until it forms a homogenous mix.
    • Remove and spread it evenly on tray that has the plain burfi base already spread out.

    Variations

    You can make this chocolate barfi recipe in many ways. Some people like to make chocolate barfi with milk powder while others might like to make chocolate burfi with condensed milk. Condensed milk is great for easy sweets but you cannot control sugar much unless using unsweetened one. You may make it in anyway but this chocolate mithai is for keeps.

    Some people also like to serve the plain mawa burfi separately.If you want to make plain mawa barfi, just add some cardamom powder to the bottom layer recipe. It still tastes great.

    Storage

    You can store this in refrigerator as in case of all dairy based sweets. It stays good for 1-2 days at room temperature. However, eating fresh is best.

    Conclusion: Chocolate barfi or chocolate fudge is a super yum mithai. It is nut free and a good alternative to milk chocolate. You can make chocolate burfi with cocoa Powder for the party and yet it looks store bought. Serve it in your party with panache. I love the fact that it doesn't lose shape or drips of sugar syrup like other sweets. To sum up, chocolate barfi is delicious and a breeze to make, using milk powder.
