Sift the flour and add it to the pan with the melted butter.
Roast the flour for 8 minutes, until it turns honey-colored without burning.
Add the cream while warm and stir quickly so cold cream does not make the halva lumpy.
Stir in the honey close to removing from the heat and bring the mixture together for 2 minutes.
Shape the halva with a spoon and serve warm.
💡 Tip: Adding the honey at the final stage leaves a more floral aroma instead of a burnt taste.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Shape with a spoon and serve warm on a dessert plate, drizzled with honey.
