Ingredients

Powdered sugar    :    1 cup   
Butter        :     ½ cup   
Milk powder     :    1 cup   
Cocoa powder    :     ½ cup   
Water        :    ¼ cup   

Method    

Set microwave to high power.
In a bowl, mix sugar and water and keep it in the oven for 4 - 5 minutes.
Check to see if it has attained a two string consistency.
That is, if we take the syrup between the tip of our fingers and stretch our fingers two strings of syrup should appear.
Add butter and keep the bowl in the oven for1 minute.
Remove from the oven, add milk powder, cocoa powder and mix well.
Pour this on greased plate or chocolate moulds to set.
If needed we can garnish it with cashew, badam, pista etc.

Tips

If needed, oil based essence can also be added.
