This is a very interesting snack that you can be added to the party platter. Especially, kids can make this treat themselves ...

Grated Coconut [1 cup]

Method
1. Cut the dark sides of the breads
2. Cut the bread slices in long vertical strips
3. Dip each stick into the sweetened milk
4. Dress them with the grated coconut
5. Arrange them in a lightly greased baking pan
6. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 350 F for 10 minutes, or until the breads turn slightly brown
This is a sweet and crunchy finger food, extremely easy to make and can be enjoyed at any time.

Sweet Bread - A quick and rich snack

I was very hungry one evening and did not have energy to make something to eat. The kitchen cabinet did not have anything enticing - and then, as always, Shekhar came to my rescue. In his typical quick and experimental style, he turned some breads into one of the best snacks I had for a long time. Read on to see how he made this.

Definitely, kids are going to love this. I did ... ahem !

Sweet Bread

1. Crumble some breads (5-6 pieces) with your fingers. We had hotdog rolls at home, so used them
2. In a pan put some oil - use ghee for a much richer taste
3. Put the crumbled breads in the ghee and stir vigorously until all the bread is mixed with the ghee. Without burning, the breads should be crisp by now and the room should smell heavenly of ghee :) - little exaggeration, well Shekhar is making it...
4. Now add about 3-4 tbsp of sugar and mix some more
5. You may eat it right away OR
6. Pour half a cup of milk in the mixture and again stir for some time
7. Garnish with some dry fruits (this is my tip)

And you are all set to eat a fast snack - It takes only as much time as to make tea. So, enjoy the Sweet Breads with a cup of tea for snacks.
