3. Sugar (1/2 cup)
4. Water (1/4 cup)
5. Milk (1 tsp)
6.Rose water (Optional)
6. Ghee (Just for greasing)

Method
1. Grinding the Cashew nuts into Powder in a dry mixer. Be sure that you grind it in a stretch, don’t stop in between and grind. Be sure that you never grind the cashew which is cold, taken from the fridge,grind it when it is in room temperature. 
2. Then boil sugar with water and keep stirring. After few minutes of boiling, check the consistency of the sugar syrup by putting a spoon and taking it out slowly. If it gives thin thread like structure when you take off the spoon then the sugar syrup is ready.
3. Now lower the flame and add the powdered cashew and keep stirring for 3-4 minutes in low flame. When the mixture gets thick and starts boiling, switch off the flame. 
4. Keep stirring in the pan for few more minutes and then transfer the mix into another plate. 
5. Check the temperature of the mix, it should be not be too hot that may burn your hand and again, it should not be too cold also. Then sprinkle some milk, mixed with few rose water and start kneading. Put some ghee into your hand so that the dough do not stick to your hand. The mix will turn into a dough and then on continuous kneading it will turn into smooth dough.
6. Roll the dough into thin layer and cut it diagonally to make pieces.You can first draw lines lightly with the knife tip and then cut into diamonds to get perfect shapes.
