After tying the rakhi on my brother’s hand, I wait to shove a plump gulaab jamun in his mouth, because that is when the gifts follow. But come to think of it, gulaab jamuns and kaju katli are so passé now. Don’t you think he deserves something different? Maybe a change of sweet might make him want to give you better gifts too. *Evil grin* Here are some sinful dessert options that will make you want to replace the boring old Raksha Bandhan sweets in a heartbeat.
