Burfi bars have been around for a long time in the Mennonite and Amish communities. They are easy to make, use whole ingredients, and taste quite dreamy. If you haven’t yet tried these tasty little treats I encourage you to get your booty in gear and whip up a batch! You won’t sorry. I was told that you should eat these wonderful burfi bars with a hot, steaming mug of chai tea or a chai latte.
I am a lover of the chai so I bet this would taste amazing! Who’s gonna try it with me?
