Step 1
Heat ghee in a wide skillet over medium. Add grated carrot and stir constantly until it darkens and smells nutty, 6–7 minutes.
Step 2
Stir in condensed milk, cashews, milk powder, and cardamom seeds. Cook, stirring, until the mixture thickens and pulls from the pan sides, 2–3 minutes.
Step 3
Pour mixture onto a parchment-lined 8-inch square pan. Press flat with a wet spatula until level.
Step 4
If using chocolate, scatter chopped pieces over the surface while the halwa is still warm. Let them soften, then spread evenly.
Step 5
Refrigerate until set, 20–30 minutes. Cut into 12–16 bars. Garnish with coconut if desired.
