Milk Tart

Ingredients

  • Base
  • 250 g biscuit
  • 100 go butter
  • Filling
  • 1 can condensed milk
  • 3 cans fresh milk using the condensed milk can
  • 3 1/2 tblsp corn flour
  • pinch salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • 2 tblsp butter
  • Ground Cinnamon

Instructions

  • Crush your biscuits until they become fine crumbs. Melt the butter and mix it into the crumbs until combined. Press into a tart pan using the base of a glass to pat down. Also press the biscuit mix into and along the sides. (a tart pan with a removable base works best, I used a 26cm tart pan, or you could try a springform pan). Place the pan in the fridge to harden while you make the filling.
  • Place the condensed milk and 2 1/2 cans of milk on the stove on a med-high heat, watch it carefully and stir often so it does not stick and burn. While the milk mixture is on the stove, mix together eggs, vanilla essence, cornflour and the leftover 1/2 can of milk, beat this up well. Wait for the milk mixture to come to the boil and whisk in your egg mixture. Keep stirring until it thickens to a custard like consistency, again ensure your mixture does not burn or stick to the bottom. Once thick take off the stove and stir in your butter. Pour into your base. Dust with cinnamon until the top is lightly covered. Let the milk tart cool and place in the fridge overnight.
