Paying attention to sweets is an integral part of Diwali celebrations. But, apart from just cooking up a storm and filling our kitchens with delicious sweets, Diwali brings much more. We get busy cleaning their houses, deciding on Lakshmi Puja and buying new clothes among other things. Hence, it becomes challenging to spend hours cooking sweet dishes in the kitchen. Plus, in general, most of us don’t get enough vacations on occasion, which makes it impossible to indulge in cooking on its own. But then we really don’t want to order sweets from outside as well because what you make is definitely special and gives a personal touch to the celebration. So, what could be the solution? Maybe, look for recipes that are easy and can be prepared quickly. Here is a list of seven finger-licking desserts that can be made at the last minute.
