Coconut Ladoos
This is the very popular ladoo recipe using only condensed milk and coconut which has been a favorite of many for years ! As a kid, I would always read the recipe for the coconut ladoos provided on the condensed milk tins. Finally, tried making the ladoos last week. It's a very simple, 2-ingredient recipe. Do give it a try if you have not prepared them before!
Ingredients
- 2 cups Desiccated coconut (about 200 grams (plus extra coconut for rolling ladoos))
- 250 grams Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 1/2 tsp cardamom powder
Instructions
-
1 In a non-stick vessel, add the condensed milk and desiccated coconut. Mix well.
-
2 Heat on medium flame for few minutes till the mixture is well combined. Now, add the cardamom powder, mix well.
-
3 Keep cooking till the mixture comes together.
-
4 Let mixture cool for 3-5 minutes. Form them into ladoos, roll them in desiccated coconut.
-
5 Continue till all mixture has been utilized. Leave them overnight at room temperature.
-
6 Enjoy them the next day ! (See notes below).
Recipe Notes
- When forming ladoos, make sure mixture doesn't get cooled off.
- Re-heat mixture if required while forming the ladoos.(in case the mixture gets cold, it will be difficult to form the ladoos).
- Store the ladoos for 3 days at room temperature.
- Refrigerate ladoos for a week.

Hi Xanti. Can I use fresh coconut for this recipe.
And in the same proportion?
Hi Rowena,
im not sure on fresh coconut, as the shelf life will be less. I have not tried with fresh coconut, maybe it shld work, but the shelf life will be less.
I love your receipes. Thank you Xanti for sharing. May God bless you.

Hi xanti
Am going to make the ladoos today just a question instead of cardamom powder can I use vanilla essence as my son does not like the taste of cardamom.
