Sheermal-Sweet Yeasty Indian Bread

Recipe by Cook's Hideout

Hope you are having a fun Easter Sunday. We went to Hershey Park yesterday and it was interesting to watch the whole process of cocoa beans turning into chocolate bars. Bought a lot of chocolate and kids had a blast on the roller coasters. Personally I'm not a roller coaster person, I'm happy watching everyone scream and have fun, I don't want to do it myself. It was a great Spring day to be out and about enjoying the weather and having fun. For the last day of Blogging Marathon, I made these slightly sweet and yeasty bread called Sheermal....
