Ingredient Breakdown
Full cream milk — gives the pudding body and creaminess
Coffee powder — deep, bold flavor
Corn flour slurry — thickens the pudding without eggs
Cinnamon + vanilla — adds gourmet dessert fragrance
Biscuit + ghee base — adds texture and balance to creaminess
How It’s Made
Start by crushing your biscuits and mixing with ghee to form a crumb base. Just press this into serving cups — your first layer is ready.
Meanwhile, boil milk until it reduces — this step adds richness.
Add coffee powder so it dissolves completely into the milk…
then mix in vanilla, cinnamon, and sugar for that dessert magic.
Next comes the smooth cornflour slurry — pour slowly and keep stirring.
Within minutes, the milk transforms into a thick, glossy pudding.
Once it cools slightly, pour the pudding over the biscuit layer.
Refrigerate… and let the flavors settle beautifully.
Top with chocolate shavings (or cocoa dusting)…
and you’ve got a café-style dessert made right at home!
