Apple Rabdi for Durgashtami

This sweet dish is from Tarla dalal's desi khana cook book. Even though this book has been there with me for more than two years now, I never really thought of trying this recipe till today. I was thinking of making a sweet for offering, when I found this recipe. I have changed the original recipe by adding milk powder instead of reducing milk to half. This I can say is an elegant dessert with sweet and fragrant flavours.
