Chocolate Coconut Modak Recipe

Chocolate Coconut Modak Recipe is an easy, interesting and yummy modak.  I went to walmart yesterday for weekly grocery shopping and I  bought almond joy chocolate.  Yumm 😛  I love almond joy, every bite was heavenly in taste. Today when I was eating almond joy in the morning and thinking for a different unique modak recipe than usual one for a new post, my brain says wait a minute, you got the filling  idea. Yes, this modak filling is going to taste like almond joy. To replicate that, I made the modak with rice flour covering and for filling, I used choco chips, almonds, ghee and coconut. You can make this easy, addictive, delicious chocolate modak for kids for upcoming ganesh chaturthi and enjoy. If you try my recipe, let me know in comment box how it turned out for you.

Notes
Adding oil or ghee gives a softer modak.
Boil water well, so that you get soft and non sticky dough.

Make thin outer layers of the dough so that the kozhukattai are soft and gets cooked easily.
