Badam orange halwa


Orange Halwa2

About:

Yes its one of the most delicious, rich and drool worthy Indian sweet. You can easily flatter your guest by serving them home made badam halwa. 🙂

This halwa uses almond meal and coconut milk to create an extra creamy texture, and is flavoured with orange juice and sweetened with dates. I used what I had on hand, but I imagine if you had some vanilla it would work well here, I used cardamom to flavour this along with orange.

Enjoy!
