Steps:
- Make the pastry according to recipe instructions then blind bake until golden brown and crisp. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
- To make the filling, heat the milk, cream, vanilla, almond extract and nutmeg in a saucepan over medium heat.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, sugar, flours and salt.
- Once the milk is hot, whisk two ladles full of the milk into the egg mixture to temper the eggs.
- Pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan and cook until thickened, whisking continuously. Cook the custard for 2-3 minutes until thick and smooth.
- Pass the custard through a fine-mesh sieve. Beat in the butter.
- Pour the custard into the prepared crust. Spray a piece of parchment paper with cooking spray then press onto the surface of the custard to avoid a skin from forming.
- Place the milk tart in the fridge and allow to set for at least 4 hours but ideally overnight.
- Before serving, dust the cinnamon over the milk tart. Slice and serve.

This recipe is great for people who do not have much of a sweet tooth. For those who love sweet things, you can add as much sugar as you want to suit your taste buds! It is delightful and quick to make. I usually make it for my husband on his birthday. It's his favorite!

Steps:
- Place condensed milk in a mixing bowl and add lemon juice 5ml at a time while mixing thoroughly. Taste after every 5ml and add to suit your taste. Lemon juice will curdle the condensed milk and it will finally turn lighter in colour and change the texture. Be sure to end with a fairly tart (tangy) mixture to offset the sweetness of the custard. Must be pleasant to eat on it's own though -- Put aside but do not refrigerate.
- Make approximately 500 ml of Custard.
- Place one layer of Tennis biscuits on the bottom of a 20 x 30 glass or ceramic fridge/oven dish. Spread a layer of Custard (approximately 1cm) over the biscuits without disturbing them but covering them. Place another layer of biscuits over the custard. Now spread a layer of the lemony condensed milk over the biscuits (approximately 5-6 mm). Repeat until you run out of ingredients or you reach the top of the dish.
- Leave one biscuit for the end to crush and sprinkle over the top. You can decorate the top with other sprinkles but biscuit crumbles are the original. Refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours but cover with tin foil to keep fridge flavours out. Cut in square portions and serve.
- This is the original South African Fridge Tart!
