I found these recipes online. They were quite nice, but, I think I'll stick to chocolate! Anne

Burfi is a sweet confectionery
from India. It is often flavoured with fruit, nuts, spices or
rose water. They are sometimes coated with a thin layer of edible metallic leaf
known as vark and are typically cut into square, diamond, or round shapes.
Different types of Burfi vary in their color and texture.
HAWAIIAN PINEAPPLE CANDY
1 c. granulated sugar; 1/2 c. brown sugar; 1/4 c. milk or cream; 1/2 c. crushed pineapple, not drained; 1 tbsp. butter; 1 tsp. vanilla; 1/2 c. pecans
Cook sugar, milk and pineapple until it forms a soft ball
when a little is dropped in cold water. Remove from fire; add butter, vanilla,
nuts. Beat until creamy, drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper.
Sometimes it helps to cook just a hair beyond the soft ball
stage to get the candy to harden. The beating is the big secret. The colour will
change as the candy gets stiff. If it is too stiff to drop from the spoon, add
a spoonful of hot water as needed, being sure to beat after every addition of
water
