Chikoo jaggery Kulfi/ Sapota Bella Candy

This is a simple recipe to prepare chikoo kulfi with milk and jaggery. It tastes great and surely a treat if you love kulfi. Usually chikoos will get ripened all at once in a lot and surely there will be a question how to finish them. Then, the answer will be either milkshake, halwa or this tasty kulfi. The natural sweetness of this fruit calls for less sweetener (sugar/jaggery) making it best suitable fruit for desserts. Check for my post on Dry fruits Kulfi / Homemade creamy ice candies with nuts
