How To Make Gulkand Filled Paan Coconut Ladoo?
Roughly chop paan leaves. In a blender blend betel leaves with 1 can condensed milk (milkmaid). If you want to add a few drops of green colors if you want a little dark green color.
Now heat a pan and add 1 tsp ghee. Now add desiccated coconut and saute on low flame till it starts to turn a little brown.
Then mix the mixture of paan and milkmaid to the pan. Mix well and saute for 2 – 3 minutes till it thickens and starts leaving the pan.

Take out from the pan and let it cool slightly. Then grease your palms and take out a small portion. Try to flatten this by pressing lightly making a disc.

Now place half tsp gulkand in the center. Bring the edges together making a ball. Roll it making it smooth. Then again roll it on desiccated coconut to give a final touch.

That’s all. Now your gulkand filled paan coconut ladoo is ready. Also, add some chopped dry fruits to gulkand to make it richer.
