2 cups Milk
4 oz (1/2 cup) sugar
6 oz (3/4 cup) ground almonds
Recipe
You will need 2 bowls, a saucepan,
and a baking dish.
Beat the eggs together.
Mix the flour with a little of the
milk, and then stir into the rest
of the milk and the beaten eggs.

and pour into an oiled baking dish.
When it is cold, cut into squares
like Turkish delight.
Serve as a special treat for holidays.
