Prepare a heart-shaped mold by lining it with parchment paper and set aside.

Reduce the heat and add the powdered milk, stir well to combine the ingredients.
Continue cooking for a few minutes to allow it to thicken.
Add the ghee, ground cardamom, and crushed saffron, and stir continuously until everything is well incorporated and the mixture has a thick consistency.
Pour the halwa into the prepared mold, level the surface, and sprinkle with pistachios, coconut, and almonds.
