The base of Kaju Cassata is typically made with a mixture of ground cashews, powdered sugar, and a small amount of ghee (clarified butter). This mixture is kneaded into a smooth dough, which is then rolled out into thin layers.
The cashew dough is layered with a combination of flavored ice creams, usually including popular flavors such as vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry. These layers of ice cream are spread evenly over the cashew dough, creating a delicious and colorful dessert.
Sometimes, additional elements are added between the ice cream layers to enhance the flavor and texture. These elements can include chopped nuts, candied fruits, or even a thin layer of fruit jam or jelly.
Once the layers are assembled, the dessert is usually frozen to allow the ice cream to set and the flavors to meld together. After it has frozen, Kaju Cassata is cut into slices or wedges and served chilled.
