Bhuswa, (Maithili: भूसबा) also called as Bhusba, is a rice laddu in the Mithila region of the Indian subcontinent. It is generally prepared as prasad (an offering) to Lord Suryanarayana and Chhathi Maiya during the festival of Chhath Puja.[1][2] After the festival rituals, the bhuswas are consumed by family and devotees.[3][4]

Bhuswa is made by soaking rice, which is then dried in sunlight. The dried rice is fried in ghee and ground to a powder. Jaggery powder (a type of cane sugar) and ghee are then combined to the flour to form spheres.[3] Cardamom and dry fruits are sometimes added for flavour.[3][5]
