Sesame jaggery roll aka til ke laddoo is what I made as an offering to lord Ganesha on the day of sakat Pooja today .

An auspicious day in the beginning of a new year when we pray to lord Ganesha for prosperity, health and happiness.

Since I didn’t want to offer store bought sweets so I called my mom to ask the recipe of her TIL ke laddoo and with a lil variation and my touch I was able to make these healthy sweetlings without worrying later.

These are even good for people with diabetes .
