g, is this sweetened coconut or unsweetened?

nice! :)

they're a bit messy but so good, no? who woulda thunk cream cheese would work so well in chocolate truffles??

Yes, even i was a bit skeptical when i read cream cheese but they turned out great! The rolling in different toppings really makes the presentation look great! I also used different type of sprinkles besides the coconut flakes and walnuts and they looked marvelous.

How about mini banoffee pies? Or a date and walnut cake? You'll probably have dates leftover from ramadan anyway

Re: eid dessert table ideas- help!

Lol… Nido is just the brand name… rest it is powder milk can be use where ever powder milk is required… :cheegum:

Re: eid dessert table ideas- help!

is powdered milk sold in toronto? i don't recall seeing any, but then i don't usually look for it either. d'oh. any brands i could look for?

Re: eid dessert table ideas- help!

look for it in where they sell coffee n tea. Its usually there.

Re: eid dessert table ideas- help!

^^ Or in the baking section.

Look for Nestle, also in Desi stores or where the "foreign or mexican spices are" in regular grocery stores. Here in the USA I have seen non-fat powdered milk being sold mostly but its not the same as the powdered Nestle which is whole milk.

SGC u can look for dry milk in desi grocery store with the brand name of NIDO its in every desi store yesterday i bought it from iqbal foods in thorncliff or and desi store nearby u..

Oh I'm totally trying this!

Is it one cup each of almonds and pistachios? One or the other? Or half and half?

Carnation sells it in the US, probably also in Canada.

1 cup all-together =)

Gina should we use desiccated, a more powdery and fine coconut or shredded as in coconut strands? Does shredded coconut stick?

Shredded coconut wud work as well.. dont use any powdered ones! Dessicated or shredded only!

^Gina, should the egg be added while the mixture is hot and on stove, or seperately? Wouldn't the egg be raw?

Mmm that sounds SO GOOD!
