Dates Ladoo | Khajur ke Ladoo | Kharjura Unde

This one is quick sweet recipe.  Dates are very sweet and also good for health. We can eat it just like that, both the dried & ripe ones. These are also used for sweets / desserts.  Since everyone knows about these I will directly head to the recipe.  I made it and it came out very nice. The sweetness also mostly comes from the Dates itself.  I also added different coatings for this ladoo.
