Thereafter we will take the mixture out of blending jar and will put it in an aluminium or a glass container and will spread it evenly.
Then we will take a pan and will put a stainless steel pan stand into it and will pour water into the pan, lighting the burner, for steaming purpose, in. Once the steam starts coming, we will put the container full of mixture on the pan stand ,covering the pan with a lid and will allow it to get steamed for 30 minutes in a low medium flame. By this time we will dry roast few cashews and will roughly chop them, which will be required during garnishing.
After 30 minutes turn off the flame and allow it to get cooled into room temperature. Once it comes in room temperature refrigerate it for another 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes take the container out of the refrigerator and your steamed chocolate sandesh is ready. Now take it out of the container and cut it into desired shapes and sizes. Garnish it with chopped roasted cashews, powdered sugar and grated chocolates and serve.
