I love doing what I do but I am finding it really hard keeping up with everything. I get requests for recipes all the time but please bare with me as I try and work through them all.
Easy Penda Truffles
Of late I have been feeling a little unusually fatigued. The fatigue is usually due to my Thyroid condition but I’ve always coped and kept busy to fight the fatigue. It is becoming harder to do that I must admit. By evening I am totally fagged out and somedays feel like I want to collapse in bed by 6pm. But I am a mom so I just keep going. Let’s hope I am back to my usual self soon. This is the usual Penda Recipe, however I dipped it in chocolate just to make it extra special and super rich…Lol! My hubby has a sweet tooth but not really a fan of too many sweetmeats or mithai as we should be calling it. However, he loved this Penda Truffles. Coming from him that’s a good sign because he is the fussiest on the planet.
What is Penda?
It is very similar to Burfee, the difference is that the Penda is not cooked on the stovetop like Burfee. I love it because I am all for the no-fuss approach. So this recipe is just up my alley.
How to make the Penda Truffles
The butter and sugar are beaten until light and fluffy, then add the dry ingredients and mix well. Flavor the mixture, roll them into balls or whatever shape you prefer. In this instance we went a step further and dipped it in some melted chocolate. Drizzled a bit more chocolate on top and there we have fancy Penda Truffles. Have you noticed just how fancy sweetmeats have become. I won’t get to that level of fanciness but I do like pretty stuff so will make them as pretty as I can.
