This is one of the recipes that I want everyone to make at least once in their lives! The process of making it is exciting and the taste is beyond rewarding. If you're a lover of tahini or "halva" then I'm sure you'll love this recipe! If you don't like chocolate, feel free to omit it from the recipe.

This recipe was inspired by Gaz. Find his recipe here.

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I did. Love you x
