Sooji ke Chamcham | Sweet sooji bites 

Sooji ke chamcham ( सूजी के चमचम ) is a delicious and tempting sweet recipe. Chamcham is a famous authentic Bengali dish that is generally made with fresh panner or chenna. But here in this recipe, I have used sooji in place of paneer. Chamcham sweet has many varities. It can be made with lots of colourful stuffing and garnishing. You can easily find white chum chum and pink chum chum. I have tried a different variation. It is also known as chom chom.
