CHOCO COCO MODAK
Choco coco modak is for all those modak lovers who are running short of time still want
to welcome Ganapati Bappa with his
favorite offering modaks. As the name
suggests the two main ingredients are chocolate and coconut. Making these modaks is very simple with very
few yummy ingredients and is ready in a matter of few minutes. I used a modak mould to shape them but you
can very easily do it with your hands too.
I bet kids are going to love these chocolate coconut modaks that they’ll be
gone like hot cakes but for us adults don’t forget workout a little extra!!!
Choco coco modak is a variation to traditional modaks which are either; steamed, fried or made with khoya. This same recipe can be used to make ladoos.

Method:
In
a microwave safe bowl add condensed milk and chocolate chips and pop it in the
microwave for 30 seconds. Mix well and again microwave it 15 seconds. The warm condensed milk will melt the

the modak and cover the tip with some more desiccated coconut.
