Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- ¾ cup oil or ghee
- 1 cup whole milk powder (Nido is fine - anything as long as it is pure whole milk powder)
- ⅛ tsp cardamom powder (optional, or adjust to taste)
- 1 cup sugar
- 6 eggs, beaten
- chopped nuts, for garnishing (optional)
Instructions
- 1
In a pan, add whole milk powder, ghee or oil, and cardamom powder (if using). Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until it turns a deep golden caramel color. Lower heat if browning unevenly.
- 2
Remove mixture from heat and transfer to a large bowl. Let cool slightly.
- 3
Stir in beaten eggs and sugar until fully combined into a smooth, cake batter-like consistency.
- 4
Pour the batter into a shallow, microwave-safe dish large enough to contain the entire batter.
- 5
Microwave on high for 5 minutes, checking once at the mid-way point to ensure it isn't burning. Once the 5 minutes are done, check to ensure the Halwa has set evenly. If there are still raw spots, microwave in 30-second intervals until done.
