- When the pressure is released, open the lid of the Instant Pot and then add ghee and almond or cashew flour. Once added, stir the ingredients together until it forms a thick paste and starts leaving the sides. If it still looks runny saute for an additional 2 minutes.
- After 2 minutes, pour or scoop out the thick paste from the pot onto a silicone mat or greased thali.
- Using a spatula, spread it evenly until it is about ¼ of an inch thick.
- Next, place parchment paper on the dough and roll with a rolling dough to make it even.
- Once even, garnish with a spread of edible silver leaves covering the entire area.
- Finally, give it about 10 minutes to set and use a pizza cutter or knife to cut the fudge into diamond shaped pieces.
