Come Raksha Bandhan and sisters and brothers put aside all their petty fights and differences and celebrate the blessing that they have to have a sibling in their life who will love and protect them. Sisters tie rakhi on their brother's wrist and in turn the brother gives her a present along with a promise that he will protect her for life. And festive occasions are the perfect excuse to indulge in some delicious yet healthy treats.

For ragi halwa
6 tbsp ghee
½ cup nachni flour
1 cup hot milk
½ cup Hershey's Chocolate Flavoured Syrup

Method to prepare:
Heat ghee in a non stick pan. Then add nachni flour.
Keep stirring the flour for 3- 4 mins on low heat. The mixture will bubble.
When the mixture starts bubbling, then add the hot milk. (The milk has to be hot. So, heat the milk separately in another pan.)
Continue stirring the ragi mixture, till it starts thickening. Now add ¼ cup Hershey's Chocolate Flavoured Syrup and Stir well.
Soon the mixture will start leaving the edges of the pan. Now sprinkle cardamom powder.
Switch off the flame and transfer the ragi halwa into a tray and let it set properly.
Once it’s set, cut into fingers and enjoy.
