Cream of Wheat Balls Recipe

Sweet Balls Made With Cream of Wheat, Spices, and Nuts

Mix together in a saucepan:

1 cup uncooked cream of wheat

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup ghee

Cook over a low flame until the mixture turns brown (about 5-10 minutes), then mix in and stir constantly for another 2-3 minutes:

1 cup sugar

2 teaspoons powdered, unsalted nuts (mixture of cashew, pistachio, almond)

1 teaspoon cadamom powder

Mix well. Let cool for as long as possible, at least 30-60 minutes. The balls are easier to form when the ingredients are room temperature. Make into 1" balls by squeezing about 1 heaping teaspoon of dough back and forth from one hand to another. Continue this process until each ball is firm and shiny. The mixture will be crumbly at first, and it takes a number of passes between your hands for the ball to form. If you are finding the mixture too crumbly, be sure you have let it cool enough. Some people find using a melon baller helps the process. As a last resort, add a little more melted ghee.
