ALWAYS READ THE COMPLETE RECIPE BEFORE STARTING. GATHER INGREDIENTS. ALSO ALWAYS READ THE NOTES FOR MORE OPTIONS AND TIPS.
Prepare the Ricotta Cheese
Transfer the ricotta cheese to the clean Cheesecloth. Wrap it up. Place the cheesecloth wrapped ricotta in a Kitchen strainer. And then place it in a Mixing Bowl for 1-2 hrs. This will take out any extra water from the ricotta making it dry to use. Drier it is, better it is.
Prepare Gulabjamun for the dessert cups
If you are making Gulab jamuns from scratch, then use those. Make sure to drain the syrup from all the gulabjamuns. They should be dry. You can use Kalajaam too. Set them aside.
Prepare Nuts for Garnish
Take unsalted raw pistachio and almonds and chop them coarsely or finely on a Chopping board.

What are the ingredients of Rabdi Gulabjamun Cups Recipe?
Gulabjamun - Use them drained from the syrup. Strain the syrup through a sieve and use. You can either make these at home or buy from the market. I used store bought HALDIRAM's GULABJAMUNS and they really are so good.
Ricotta Cheese - You can use either low fat or original. Strain it through a cheesecloth for 1-2 hrs.
Condensed Milk
Cardamom Powder
Chopped Nuts - Use pistachio and almonds
Rose Water used in cooking or Saffron
Whip It Stabilizer - It is optional. I have used it to stabilize rabdi to create mousse like texture. You can skip it. And for the information, it does not have gelatin or agar agar. Bakers use it to stabilize whipped cream to use in baking products.
