Flour Halvah

Here is a yummy recipe for flour halvah.

Ingredients:

• 100gr unsalted butter
• 2 cups flour
• 3 tbsp pine nuts or shredded almonds
• Fruits, cinnamon, walnuts for decoration.

Syrup:

• 2 cups water
• 1 1/2 cups sugar

Preparation:

1. In a medium pot mix syrup ingredients and boil them letting the sugar melt.
2. Meanwhile, in a sauce pan, melt butter and add nuts. Stirring constantly, roast them fully. Be very careful not to burn them. Add flour and keep stirring. The flour should get a light brown color.

4. Put aside and let it cool.
5. While the halvah is warm you may give it a shape you like or just spread it on a cooking pan. Decorate with nuts and fruits of your choice.
