Carrot Ladoo (Indian Sweet)

Carrots are one item which are in my fridge always and I always wonder what to do with it. My husband doesn’t like it, so I cant make any curry with it. So finally I keep converting it into different forms so that its finished. Carrot cake is one of our family’s favorite. This is another recipe which you can try. Its easy to make and tastes good.
