How to turn halva into a new delicacy?
Content
Halva desserts may sound strange and unusual, but adding this delicacy to your home cookbook will broaden your horizons and truly surprise your guests. In this article you will see a simple and delicious recipe for halva pie.
Halva pie
To prepare this original treat, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 cup flour;
- 1 cup of sugar;
- 100 grams of halva;
- 3 whole eggs;
- Half a cup of roasted peanuts;
- 1 package of vanillin;
- 0.5 teaspoon of soda, quenched with vinegar;
- A little vegetable oil.
The undeniable advantage of this recipe is that it doesn't require much time or significant financial investment. Generally, everything except nuts and halva are readily available at home. The cooking process isn't particularly difficult either.
First, we need to find a deep bowl in which to beat the eggs and sugar. You can use a whisk or a mixer—whatever is more convenient for you. A deep bowl is needed to prevent splashes when using a mixer. If you don't have this problem, then you don't need to worry about the depth of the bowl.
Vanillin is added to the mixture, and the mixture is beaten again until completely dissolved. The next step is to add half a teaspoon of baking soda and vinegar. Next, add a cup of flour. Stir the mixture until smooth.
In another bowl, whisk together the halva and peanuts. Pour half the batter into a well-greased pan, sprinkle with the halva and nut filling, and then pour the batter over the top.
This unusual pie is baked at a temperature of 180-200 degrees for thirty minutes.
Dish presentation
The pie can be served whole or sliced. We suggest cutting it into portions and decorating it beautifully.
A good serving option is melted white chocolate (a chocolate bar and a carton of heavy cream, melted in a double boiler and stirred until thickened). Drizzle it over each piece and sprinkle with cinnamon.
Another original and simple way to serve it is with a caramel topping and a few coffee beans. You can also make a delicious halva drink to go with this halva dessert.
Halva and coffee dessert drink
This unusual drink can be enjoyed either cold or slightly warm. It's incredibly easy to prepare and pairs perfectly with the halva pie suggested above.
To prepare you will need:
- 50 grams of peanut halva;
- A pack of medium fat cream;
- 130 milliliters of strong brewed coffee;
- 10 milliliters of maple syrup or any other syrup of your choice.
First, brew the coffee. It's best to strain the grounds to make the drink smoother and more pleasant to the taste. Add the syrup to the hot coffee, then let it cool slightly.
Meanwhile, thoroughly whisk the cream and halva in a blender until smooth. Then add the strained coffee and cream, and blend the "cocktail" again.
The resulting thick liquid is poured into glasses, sprinkled with cinnamon, and garnished with a cinnamon stick and straws. Optionally, you can also top it with whipped cream and garnish it with grated mint or some syrup.
These unusual halva desserts are quick and easy to make at home. The undeniable advantage of both dishes is that they can be enjoyed by both adults and children.
