Rasmalai or Rasamalai is an all time favorite sweet for all festive seasons, especially Diwali. Rasmalai is a rich indian delicacy, The spongy and mildly sweet paneer balls dunked in the richness of milk, with the slight flavour of sugar syrup, creaminess of nuts and  flavours of cardamom and saffron. Heaven!
