Eggless Gulab Jamun Cake and Rabri Shots

Eggless Gulab Jamun Cake and Rabri Shots-Eggless Cake topped with Instant rabri and Gulab jamun makes a very appealing and crowd pleasing dessert. A complete show stopper-the cake is flavored with cardamoms and saffron and absorbs the rabri completely to become moist and melt in the mouth delicious!

This Eggless Gulab Jamun Cake and Rabri Shots recipe is a combination of two of the most popular recipes on the blog-Instant rabri which requires only 4 ingredients and 4 minutes to make and ‘Gulab Jamun Mix’ cake which tastes like a mawa cake flavored with cardamoms and saffron. You can use any eggless cake recipe from the blog, though the gulab jamun cake goes really well with the rabri. I did make the rabri just a little bit thinner than I normally do as I wanted it to get absorbed by the cake.

I used 2 oz square plastic cups, and got around 50 servings. You can bigger cups, just cut the cake accordingly to fit into the shot glasses. If you don’t have shot glasses- put the cake in a large 9*13 pan, poke with a tooth pick and cover completely with hot rabri.  If serving as a large cake, set it aside in the refrigerator, overnight or few hours.Top with gulab jamun and chopped nuts.

• Place a small square of the cake and pour rabri all over and around the cake(Should cover the cake completely and be level with the cake)
• Cover and place in refrigerator for few hours
• If the cake absorbs the rabri after cooling, add some more, making sure the rabri is level with cake and cake pieces are fully soaked in rabri. Top with half of a gulab jamun and garnish with nuts and saffron

Notes

If you are in a rush-then take a toothpick and poke the cake all over with the toothpick. After cutting the cake into small bite size squares, pour hot rabri on top and let it cool. Then place each soaked square in the shot glass/cup and pour more rabri on top so it completely covers the cake pieces. I used the cake and rabri shots after 12 hours and felt this step was not needed. I could have directly placed the cake squares into the shot glasses and covered with the rabri. But if you are going to consume the dessert the same day, go ahead and cut and soak in hot rabri before placing the cake pieces in shot glasses. I have used canned gulab jamuns, you can use fresh ones. I also put the cut gulab jamuns on paper towel, cut side on the paper towel for a few minutes to absorb excess syrup. It can be served individually like I have done or as a large cake. Just make sure to poke holes and cover the cake in rabri from all sides so it gets to absorb. If serving as a large cake, set it aside in the refrigerator, overnight or few hours.

Optional step– if using the dessert right away-Pour hot rabri on the cut cake and leave it for some time to get absorbed by cake

Pour a spoonful of rabri in each of the shot glasses, this helps to ‘glue’/hold the cake in place

Pour rabri all over and around the cake(Should cover the cake completely and be level with the cake,here I have purposely shown half filled shot glasses)
