Chestnut Flour Halvah by Karunika Dasi



Made just like halvah but you have to be ever ever so careful to roast this delicate flour very slowly and carefully.


Ingredients: 1/4 cup butter,
3/4 cup chestnut flour.

Half way through roasting add ground nuts of your choice (I like hazlenut or almond).

Boil 1 1/2 cups of milk with 1/2 cup of sugar.

Add to roasted flour and cook down to the consistency of your choice.

Add chopped nuts and dried fruit to the mixture if you wish. (This time I added chopped prunes and apricots).



Ps. I add about 1 cup of ground nuts for this quantity. Quantity in photo was double recipe.
