I was so eager to try this custard halwa once priya aks posted it on her other blog . They tempted me so much and I made an mango flavored halwa from her custard pd halwa recipe . They turned out so yummy and I made them for a diwali get together we had last week end . This halwa was a great hit and the guest started asking me for the recipes . These are super lite not too heavy halwa like the corn flour halwa but the flavor gives it added advantage to fall for .I have tried making this halwa long back when I was a non blogger but they didn’t set nicely , I was so happy to see the glossy and jelly like texture of this yummy halwa .
Thanks to Priya Suresh aks for sharing this delicious halwa I almost made this halwa as the given measurement but changed the sugar level and added flavor to it by including mango puree to it π Click here for Blogging Marathon page for the other Blogging Marathoners doing BM#34.
