Popularly known as Godhumai halwa, Wheat halwa is a delicious sweet made with whole wheat. This sweet is made at home and can be bought in the shops as well. And surprisingly, both have a unique taste. While the one made at home tastes of fresh wheat and ghee, the ones bought from shops have a unique flavour of their own too. No additional flavour is added to this halwa to preserve the flavour of whole wheat flour. This is an easy dish to make and can be made at anytime when the heart craves for something sweet.
