Add 3 tablespoons of jaggery and 1 teaspoon of cardamom powder to the mixer jar and blend into a fine powder.

Transfer the mixture to a wide bowl and add the roasted cashew nuts and 2 tablespoons of thick ghee.

Mix everything together, checking if additional ghee is needed for binding.

Grease your palms with ghee and take small portions of the mixture to shape into ladoos.

Place the ladoos aside to set and cool completely.
