MILK TART

• 1 cup flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 egg (take 1 egg, beat it up a bit and then use half of this)
• 2 oz butter
• 1/4 cup sugar salt

Beat together butter & sugar. Add egg, and then add in dry ingredients. You should get a crumbly mix. Press this into a pie dish and bake at 350F for 20 minutes.

FILLING

• 1 1/2 eggs (you use the other half of the egg that contributed to the pastry)
• 1 1/4 tablespoons flour
• 1 1/4 tablespoons cornflour
• 2 1/4 cups milk (this is 1 pint)
• 1 tsp vanilla flavouring
• 1 tsp butter

Boil the milk. In another bowl/pot (depending on whether you are using a microwave or cooker), beat the egg and sugar. Add the flour & cornflour to the egg/sugar mixture and beat this together. Add the milk and cook till it thickens. (This works well in a microwave oven). Remove from heat and add vanilla & butter. Beat well, and pour into the baked shell. Sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg, and cool. (This is best refrigerated.)
