TOPRA PAK is traditional Indian coconut sweet; easy to make, delicious and with only 3 ingredients needed.
We usually make it on lazy Sundays when we crave for something sweet but we are too lazy to do something more complex. It is done really quickly and with minimum possible mess in the kitchen.
We tried it first time in India and ever since it became a regular dessert in our house. Unlike the most of Indian sweets this one is not too sweet. If you like coconut as much as we do, this will become one of your favorite quick desserts.

Ingredients
- 400 ml Condensed Milk

During our trip to India some 2 years ago, we absolutely fall in love with Indian Cuisine and, since then we are obsessed.
Since we brought a lot of spices from India (yes, even 2 years later we still have some) we are experimenting a lot trying traditional Indian recipes.
