Mahallebi Turkish milk pudding

Muhallebi (Mahalabia) Milk Pudding

Nurdiyanah Magness
The milk pudding known as muhallebi or mahalabia is as good as they come. Light, gently flavoured and super easy to make at home. It is a Make Ahead dessert and is a must try! If you like Milky Puddings as I do, then you're going to like this one! It is delicious and takes only few minutes to prepare.
