Rich and tasty dry fruits halwa are typically prepared during the festival season like Diwali, special occasion feast, get together, etc. Dates halwa | Khajar halwa is also served for iftar meal during Ramadan. Loaded with nuts, dates this is one perfect snack recipe for kids. If you prefer to consume dry fruits halwa with a spoon you can skip some flour. To make it a dry fruit Burfi I added little cornflour, this cornflour halwa texture slightly differs from traditional corn flour halwa.
Can I use other dry fruits for halwa?
Today I have used dates, but you can use apricot, fig, prunes, or any other dry fruits. You can also use mixed dry fruits make sure you take 1 cup of dry fruits and soak them in water before preparing halwa

Yes, you can skip mixed nuts and prepared Khajar halwa in that case reduce the sugar accordingly.
What kind of nuts is ideal for dry fruits in Burfi?
I have combined 4 different nuts but you can prepare the dry fruits barfi with just one nut variety. Avoid pecans that can turn oily while pulsing and that might affect the fluffy fruits halwa texture. Instead of using nuts, you can add sesame seeds, coconut, pumpkin seeds, etc. of your choice
Can I make sugar-free dry fruits Burfi?
You can make it sugar-free if you prefer a Burfi with mild sweetness.sugarless dates burfi is one of the kids' favorite. I tried to make adyar andha bhavan dry fruits halwa so I added sugar. You can add brown sugar or jaggery instead of white sugar.

yes, I have added corn flour to get a soft Burfi like texture you can skip if you prefer not to cut the halwa
