Pour the tahini into a medium saucepan and warm it over low heat, stirring occasionally for about 2-3 minutes until it becomes more fluid and easier to work with
Add the honey gradually while continuing to stir constantly, ensuring the mixture blends smoothly without lumps
Continue stirring for another 3-4 minutes until the tahini and honey are fully combined and the mixture has a creamy, uniform consistency
Pour the warm halva mixture into serving bowls or onto a plate, shaping it into a mound or patty if desired
Drizzle the surface with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with ground cinnamon
Top with crushed walnuts or almonds and a few sesame seeds for added texture and flavor
Serve immediately while still warm, optionally accompanied by warm pita bread or Greek yogurt
