ButterScotch ShriKhand Recipe | How to Make Shrikhand

Shrikhand is Indian  sweet which is very smooth and velvety in texture, made from hung Curd / Yogurt.
It's very easy to make dessert and super delicious. Its one of my favourite dessert.
We can make different flavours of Shrikhand like Elaichi(cardamom), Mango and many other.
Today I am going to make ButterScotch Shrikhand.

Makes: 1 Cup

Ingredients:
1 cup Hung Curd/Very Thick Yogurt
1/4 cup Powdered Sugar
3 Tbsp Homemade ButterScotch Chips (Coarsely Powdered)
Homemade ButterScotch Sauce/Chips to garnish (Optional)
Roasted Cashews to garnish (Optional)

Method:
Lets make hung curd
1.Take regular Curd in a muslin cloth and hang for 4 to 5 hours.
you will get a Thick curd(yogurt). Don't keep it for longer time. Curd will become sour.
If you want to keep it overnight then put the curd in muslin cloth/sieve and keep this on top of bowl to collect water and keep in refrigerator.
2.5 cups of regular curd gives 1 cup(approx) of hung curd/Thick yogurt.

Lets make Shrikhand
1.Take hung curd in a bowl.
2.Add sugar to it and beat nicely with spoon till mixture becomes smooth in texture.
Try not to use electric mixer/beater. Over beating spoils texture. If using electric hand mixer take care not to over beat.
3.Make a coarse powder(not very fine) of ButterScotch Chips and fold into a curd/yogurt mixture.

4.Voila ButterScotch Shrikhand is ready. Garnish With ButterScotch Sauce or Chips or Cashews.
5.Serve Chilled.



Note:

1.You can adjust sugar quantity according to your taste.
2.You can adjust ButterScotch Powder according to your taste.
3.Chilled Shrikhand tastes best. I know its hard to wait but Trust me :).
