Ingredients Serving: 10

Shredded coconut 1 cup
Paneer/cottage cheese 1 cup
Sugar 1/4 cup or to taste
Cardamom powder 1/2 teaspoon
Dark chocolate as require
Ghee/clarified butter or butter for greasing the moulds

Instructions

Mix paneer/cottage cheese, coconut and sugar. Add less sugar, taste after mixing and add more if require. Mix well with you finger tips. Make a smooth mixture.
Heat a nonstick or heavy bottom pan. Cook the coconut mixture on low flame. Keep stirring. Cook until the mixture dried up. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool down.
Make it smooth again. You can use grinder or blender to make the mixture smooth. Or knead well with hand.
Grease the moulds. I have used small chocolate moulds for bite sized sandesh and some muffins moulds for large size.
Melt the chocolate in double boiler or microwave. I have used half of the morde dark chocolate bar. Stir well with a spoon.
Now take the greased moulds. Pour 1 teaspoon coconut paneer/cottage cheese mixture. Set and level with a spoon or your finger tips. Press gently.
Pour 1 teaspoon melted chocolate over it. Make it flat and even with a spoon.
Keep the moulds in refrigerator for 2-3 hours.
Demould on a plate. Serve chilled.
