The two ladoo that I make the most are Sooji (Rava) Ladoo and Besan Ladoo, it's my duty every time to make ladoo whether I am in parents place or in-law's place and I make besan ladoo every year so many times but was never able to post it as these ladoo disappears in no time at all.

Once very funny thing happened, just before Diwali my friend asked to help her making some sweet and I made besan ladoo with her and chatting with her I added extra ghee, after the some time the laddo were just becoming halwa and couldn't hold the shape at all :) So make sure you measure ghee and add in small quantity first if not measuring.
