Hi,
I would like to make this for a party, and I read in the comments that we can make the rabri and toasted bread separate and assemble it during serving. Can you tell me whether it is okay to make the rabri two days in advance? Will it go bad?
Response: Hello Zerene, you can make the rabri two days in advance. Store it in the refrigerator to prevent it from turning bad.

I have never tasted this before!! Can this be refrigerated overnight? Will the soaking spoil the texture or will it be good like rasagulla?
Response: Hi Sai, you can prepare it in advance and refrigerate it but soak it at the time of serving.

It tastes good. I added Milk powder instead of paneer, and since milk powder has a little bit of sugar in it, reduced the sugar a little.
Response: Hi Harsha, thanks for trying the recipe and sharing about using milk powder instead of paneer in it. I will try using milk powder.

Can I skip condensed milk??

Please tell me which paneer (cheese) did you use?
Response: Hi Rabia, I have used the homemade paneer in this recipe. Paneer is used in the recipe to get the chunky malai texture in rabri. If it is not available, you can add fresh breadcrumbs or mava (khoya) instead of it. You can buy the paneer from any Indian grocery store or make it at home.
