I love my DH as he is always affectionate, understanding, caring and makes me feel special and valuable…! I admire his wonderful mind, beautiful soul and the cute surprises he reserves for me..:)) This halwa made of almonds, milk, sugar and clarified butter is a rich, scrumptious, mouth watering delicacy and quick to make.
