Gita, writer of Gita’s Kitchen, made some delicious Peanut Chikki using Xagave. This Indian dessert is easy to make and will most certainly satisfy your sweet tooth!

Ingredients:
1 cup dry peanuts
2/3 cup Xagave
¼ teaspoon Cardamom powder
1 teaspoon canola oil
a pinch of salt
Steps:
Add Xagave to a nonstick pan and start stirring under medium heat. Once the Xagave starts bubbling, add the cardamom powder and salt and mix well. Then add the peanuts slowly and keep stirring continuously under low flame to prevent clump formation. The mixture will thicken gradually. Pour the contents over a plate smeared with canola oil and spread it evenly and let it cool. Once cooled, cut the chicks into small pieces and enjoy.
Did you use cocktail peanuts? or does “dry” mean dry roasted? Is it crunchy like brittle?
Thanks
Holly
Hi Holly, you can cocktail peanuts for this. It is almost like brittle.
