Just OK. I've had better halwa.

This recipe was a disaster! The halwa never thickened and it ended up being more like a soup. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This halwa was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

Just finished making this halwa and it is delicious! The only thing I changed was using almond milk instead of regular milk. Still turned out great!
