      I have looked at halva many times and been unsure about trying it, so now I can say that I have not only tried it, I made it to, and it was so easy to put together. If you like sweet, you will like this, it's very sweet. I served this with a blob of yoghurt, I am not sure if this is right but it was nice the two together. I think the cooking and prep time is way off other than that it was a good recipe. Made for PAC spring 2009.
