Dry roast peanuts in a heavy bottomed pan till you see dark brown spots on them. Peanuts just peel off when they are roasted right.

Switch off the flame and transfer the peanuts on to a wide plate. Let it cool. Once done, peel off the peanuts completely.

Add these peeled peanuts in to a mixer and pulse it 2 to 3 times to obtain coarse powder.

Include jaggery too and grind together so that jaggery blends well with powdered peanuts. You will get peanut-jaggery dough which is ready to roll in to balls.

Transfer the peanut laddu mix in to a wide bowl. Add ghee, cardamom powder and broken cashews.

Mix well. Take a handful of mix and shape in to laddu. Continue with rest of the laddu mix.

Peanut laddu is ready. Kids will enjoy this as a snack after school.

The oil oozed out from peanuts is just sufficient to make balls. So ghee is optional. I have added it for nice fragrance.

Do not try grinding peanut and jaggery separately. If you try combining thus ground peanuts and jaggery, it will not form even dough.

These laddus can be stored for a fortnight under normal temperature.
