Start by measuring out 4 cups of all-purpose flour.

Add 8 oz of cream cheese to the flour, ensuring the cream cheese is at room temperature.

Incorporate the cream cheese into the flour using your hands until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

Add 4 cups of powdered milk to the mixture.

Pour in some condensed milk and a little evaporated milk, mixing until combined.

Add a little ghee on top of the mixture and cover it, allowing it to sit for about 5 minutes.

After 7 minutes, roll the mixture into small balls, ensuring they are all the same size for even cooking.

Heat oil in a pot and fry the balls, making sure not to overcrowd the pot to allow for even cooking.

Fry until they are light and golden, checking for cracks in the exterior.

Once fried, instead of using sugar syrup, drizzle condensed milk over the top and mix it in.

Sprinkle powdered milk on top to avoid a sticky finish, ensuring it sticks to each piece.

Taste the finished product to check for texture and flavor.
