Apple Raspberry Halwa

Apple Raspberry halwa is a must try delicious sweet. This was an accidental recipe..it sometimes happens in my kitchen..I started with another recipe and ended up with this one.I started with not so optimistic note and with a grim determination.....no experimenting with food in  future. To begin  with it was pale and unattractive pink.But as the cooking proceeded I was surprised and once I let the halwa set I was truly happy..But my laziness reflects in these pictures..the seeds of the raspberries. I did not puree and stain them but just dumped them along with chopped apples. Anyways hubby felt that the seeds looked cute:).

Raspberries-  1 cup
