The mixture should be crumbly. Turn off the flame. Transfer the flour on to a plate. Add the powdered sugar and all dry fruits and mix well. Let the mixture cool down. Meanwhile, once the goond has cooled, with a rolling pin, crush them into a coarse powder. Add this crushed goond in to wheat and dry fruit flour mixture. Now take little amount of mixture in your hands and give them round shape. Small or big that is totally up to you.Keep them aside for few hours, it will help the ladoos to set properly. You can keep them in airtight container for a month.Serve Gond Ke Ladoo as a healthy snack during winter to ward off flus and colds or to new mothers after delivery to provide them with instant energy and aid in lactation.
