Chocolate-Hazelnut Gujiya is a modern, indulgent twist on the traditional Holi favourite. While the classic version features khoya and dry fruits, this fusion variation introduces rich dark chocolate and roasted hazelnuts for a luxurious, nutty depth of flavour. The crisp, flaky pastry shell perfectly balances the creamy, melt-in-the-mouth filling inside. The addition of cocoa powder enhances the chocolate intensity, while crushed hazelnuts add crunch and a subtle roasted aroma. A hint of vanilla rounds off the flavours, making each bite reminiscent of a premium chocolate-hazelnut spread, but wrapped in festive tradition.
