Chikki

Chikki is a popular traditional Indian brittle made from nuts or seeds and jaggery or sugar. It is a common snack, especially enjoyed during festivals like Makar Sankranti. The process involves melting jaggery or sugar to create a syrup, then mixing it with ingredients like peanuts, sesame seeds, or other nuts. The mixture is spread out, flattened, and cut into pieces before it hardens. Chikki is loved for its crunchy texture and sweet, nutty flavor, and it is also appreciated for being a nutritious and energy-boosting treat.
