This cake has the nutty flavor of milk solids with a crunch of cashews. If you want to have the richness of milk and a lingering smell of cardamoms, go for this very Indian-style Eggless Mawa Cake. Mawa is solidified burnt-browned milk which is prepared by continuously boiling the milk till the water evaporates and only the milk solids are remaining.
