Also, another thing you could try is running the knife under warm water then using it to cut the refrigerated burfi, that might give you cleaner pieces.<br /><br />hope this helps! but its the taste that matters, really. Wish you a happy Diwali!:)Mansihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01109414198476017680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3321320852129678916.post-18067860281920905192009-10-11T21:01:42.007-07:002009-10-11T21:01:42.007-07:00Hi Mansi, I tried it today with the almond powder....Hi Mansi, I tried it today with the almond powder. It came out well but I did not get them perfectly square like yours. Even after refrigerating, it was sticking to the knife while cutting.

But just add 1 tbsp sugar, that's what I did, and it wasn't extremely sweet:)<br /><br />good luck, I'm sure it'll come out great!Mansihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01109414198476017680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3321320852129678916.post-70811448181147386592009-10-09T09:54:13.084-07:002009-10-09T09:54:13.084-07:00Hi Mansi, I am going to try this over the weekend....Hi Mansi, I am going to try this over the weekend. how much sugar do you add?
