HALVAH PARFAIT

Steps:

• In a bowl whip the sweet cream until it forms stiff peaks. In a small saucepan mix the sugar with 6 tablespoons of water and boil for 5 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and let the mixture cool.
• In the top of a double boiler, over but not in boiling water, place the syrup and add the egg yolks and Amaretto.
• Mix with a hand mixer without stopping until the mixture is thick in texture and lighter in color and begins to form a foam on the surface.
• Remove from the heat, transfer to a mixing bowl and add the halvah.
• Mix at a high speed without stopping for 15 minutes and then fold in the whipped cream, mixing gently with a plastic spatula until the mixture is even throughout.
• Transfer the mixture to a loaf pan, cover with plastic wrap or parchment paper and place in the freezer for a minimum of 6-8 hours. Serve in thick slices as a dessert.
• *Hailing from the Middle East, this confection is made from ground sesame seed and honey, sometimes with the addition of chopped dried fruit and pistachio nuts. It`s available in most supermarkets in wrapped bars, and in Jewish delicatessens in long slabs from which individual slices can be cut.
