GREEK HALVA WITH ALMONDS

Greek Halva With Almonds image

This is a traditional greek dessert, but unlike most of the recipes on this site, uses butter instead of oil. I like to heat a bit up and pour milk over it and have it for breakfast. Please note that cooking time doesn't include time for cooling (since technically it's good hot too).
