Chocolate modak recipe: This year, the Ganesh festival starts from 27 August. In Hinduism, the day of Ganesh Chaturthi is considered very auspicious and special because the birth anniversary of Bappa is celebrated on this day.

This time if you want to make something different and special instead of traditional modak, then chocolate modak is a great option. This will not only like the children, but will also make the taste of elders wonderful.

Make a mixture of modak
Heat ghee in another pan and add condensed milk, milk powder and cocoa powder to it and stir continuously. Finally add melted chocolate and mix well. Now let this mixture cool slightly so that it becomes easier to fill it in the mold.
Make modak
Grease the mold of modak with ghee. Add a mixture of chocolate to it and make a light pit in the middle. Now fill the mawa stuffing in it and put the chocolate mixture on top and close it. Keep them for some time to be set in the fridge. Then after a while, the prepared miley will be a delicious and special chocolate modak, which you can offer Bappa to everyone by offering it to everyone.
