excellent recipe. makes a really light and tasty version of the classic pakistani dessert. great year round espcially summer because not too creamy and heavy. can make the malai balls a bit more dense by mixing 2/3 nonfat milk powder and 1/3 nido full cream milk powder.

oh well, all those so very difficult recipes of Ras Malai where we have to add cottage cheese and drain it and god knows what, it's much much easier to use powdered milk. amazing recipe, i just made one mistake earlier, i added too much baking powder.
