Mawa Gujiya is a timeless festive treat that holds a special place in Indian households, especially during Holi and Diwali. The crisp outer shell made from flour and ghee gives way to a rich, melt-in-the-mouth filling of khoya and dry fruits. Each bite is sweet, nutty, and indulgent, making it hard to stop at just one. Perfectly fried to a golden brown, gujiyas are not just sweets but a celebration of togetherness, memories, and tradition.
