Sweet Semolina Halva with Honey

An aromatic semolina halva so apropos due to fasting and specific, due to the addition of honey.
The honey gives the halva a more soft sweetness compared with sugar, and so it becomes -let's say- somewhat more healthy. The orange gives it extra wonderful aroma. All the rest do the spices. Lots of cinnamon, asteroid anise and cloves. Do not forget the crushed hazelnuts on top that blends perfectly with halva. Try this lenten dessert and I'm sure you will enjoy it!
