Doodh Peda (Quick & Easy)

September 12, 2021 by maria 10 Comments

Easy Doodh Peda Recipe or Milk Peda recipe with stepwise instructions. This is a quick recipe of making pedas. Traditionally milk fudge (khoya) is used but I have used sweetened condensed milk.  So the process of cooking gets fasten and gives you equally great flavor and taste.

Doodh Peda (Quick & Easy)

I remember as a child spying at all pedas and barfis through the glass display. Nothing has changed much still spy sweets. However now I make them mostly home 😉 and also buy if get tempted.

These pedas are smooth, soft and would just vanish in few seconds. You could make these during time crisis at your place. In-fact these could be cooked in less than 20 mins. Apparently had posted chocolate pedas which also were delicious and made in less time.

Also I have used milk powder in this recipe. When you use any kind of powder ensure it’s mixed evenly else the result would be lumpy mixture and not smooth. While cooking I have just used a hand blender in the mixture to get smooth and even pedas. If you don’t have a hand blender just use a beater that would also work perfectly fine.

Further you could leave the pedas as it is. Otherwise garnish them with pistachios, almonds or saffron strands. Also to give an intricate pattern I have used the peda stamps. I have attached the pic for your reference and you could easily purchase them from online portals.

5. Also add the saffron infused milk and keep stirring until the mixture starts leaving the edges of the pan. Please don’t overcook this mixture. Once they cool you should be able to form balls. If they are still soft then cook again for some more time.

6. Now remove this mixture on a greased plate. Allow to cool or you could refrigerate them for some time. I don’t have a pic for this step.

7. Grease your hand and shape into small balls.

    Hi Maria. I’m Nancy from Malaysia. I like your sharing with clear steps in making the pedas. May I know, is there a different outcome in using a full cream milk powder and a non-fat milk powder?
    I would like to try out & this is the 1st time of making Indian sweets. Thank you.

      Nancy thanks for your kind words 🙂 full cream will give you more creamier texture and flavor than a skimmed milk powder. Do try and let us know how it was? thanks.
