Algerian Mhalbi with Orange Blossom Water and Almonds (Perfumed Milk Flan)

Mhalbi is a creamy treat my grandmother used to make on summer evenings in Algeria. This milk flan perfumed with orange blossom water, lightly spiced with cinnamon and topped with toasted almonds, is a true trip back in time. Looking for a quick dessert that impresses? This mhalbi is ready in 20 minutes and best enjoyed cold. It's also a chance to discover a subtle difference: Algerian couscous is often served with a spicy broth and stewed meats, while Moroccan couscous tends to be sweeter. For this dessert, the spices remain subtle: just cinnamon and orange blossom water, typical of Algerian pastry.
