Notes

The original recipe calls for equal portion of almonds,pistachios and cashews. Since I wanted the recipe to be made under 10 minutes, I used sliced almonds and crushed them roughly with a rolling pin. This was a big time saver, instead of chopping all the nuts. I have made this recipe with butter and with ghee, they both taste good and I would use whatever is available.Dont cook too long after adding the condensed milk, just till it all combines and comes together. Using waxpaper, makes it so easy to take the barfi out of the pan. Pressing the top of the barfi with a spatula or surface gives clean cut barfis. To make double the quantity, use a full can of condensed milk and set in a 9*13 pan.
