pantry

- Lower heat if browning unevenly.
- Remove mixture from heat and transfer to a large bowl. Let cool slightly.
- Stir in beaten eggs and sugar until fully combined into a smooth, cake batter-like consistency.
- Pour the batter into a shallow, microwave-safe dish large enough to contain the entire batter.
- 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.
