7 cup burfi recipe | Seven cup barfi recipe, a classic, traditional Deepavali sweet. Seven-cup cake recipe with detailed step-by-step pictures.

7 cup burfi | seven cupcakes is an easy sweet recipe. In most houses, it is compulsory sweet for Diwali. My grandmother also makes this every year. She always says it is easy for distributing among neighbors too for Diwali. My mother-in-law also makes this but she adds cashew paste to this. I have posted her version of Coconut and cashew burfi. This recipe is different and no complicated steps are involved in making this Diwali sweet.

No need to check for any string consistency in this recipe. Looking for an easy Diwali sweet, then this 7 cup burfi is a must-try one. The name 7 cup denotes 7 ingredients in this sweet recipe. We don’t have 7 different ingredients, the main ones being besan, sugar, ghee, coconut, and milk. But sugar and ghee are added in 2 portions.

If you are measuring in one small cup, use the same cup size for measuring all the ingredients.
