What is a Milk Bar?
A Milk Bar is a creamy dessert square (or bar) made from milk, sugar, and a binding ingredient like cornstarch, custard powder, or condensed milk, sometimes enhanced with flavors like vanilla, cardamom, or saffron. It has a fudge-like consistency—firm enough to cut into bars, yet soft and smooth when you bite into it. Some variations even include nuts or coconut for added texture.
Ingredients
2 cups full-cream milk
1 cup sugar (adjust to taste)
½ cup milk powder
3 tablespoons cornstarch (or custard powder)
½ cup unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or cardamom powder for an Indian-style twist)
A handful of chopped nuts (optional, for garnish)
