June 29, 2018 By Radhika Malhotra 2 Comments

The perfect Eggless recipe with the freshness of rose petals and the spiced flavour from the thandai powder is all you need this summer.

Rose Pistachio Cake

 

Summer time calls for refreshing flavours and this time I’ve come up with this easy and eggless Thandai Rose cake recipe. This best ever recipe that just calls for simple ingredients like yogurt, milk , flour , sugar and some nuts and is just the cake you would want to have with your masala tea. What’s unique about this dessert is  that I’ve just used 2 tbsp of oil which makes it the best tea time treat and low fat at the same time. The crunchiness from the pistachios and the fresh aroma from the dried rose petals are just the perfect combination for this dessert.
