Badam halwa or almond fudge is a royal, rich, and delicious dessert that is perfect for festivals and celebrations.

Halwa is a dense, sweet confections that are popular across India. They are very easy to make and are prepared both on festivals and for day-to-day dessert cravings.

To make badam halwa, I blend together blanched almonds and milk. I then slow cook it with ghee, sugar, cardamom, and saffron. The process is simple, all it needs is some patience and some muscle power to stir the halwa. But trust me, every spoonful of the halwa you relish will be it absolutely worth it.

This gluten-free dessert is to die for. For a vegan option, replace milk with coconut/almond milk and ghee with coconut oil.

Treat your family and friends with this delicious royal dessert during your next celebration and I am sure everyone will love it.
