    Gypsy Tart

    does anyone remember this from school days? it was my favorite



    1 400g (14oz) Tin of Evaporated Milk
    340g (12oz) Dark Muscovado Sugar
    1 10inch Pre-baked shortcrust pastry case Pre-heat oven to 200°C: 400°F: Gas 6.
    Whisk evaporated milk and sugar together for approximately 10 minutes
    Until light and fluffy and coffee coloured.
    Pour the mix into the pastry case.
    Bake for 10 minutes.
    The surface will appear slightly sticky but will set completely when left to cool.
    Serve cold.

    A good hug often helps

    Thankyou so much for this recipe.Iv'e been looking for it for ages Gary Rhodes gave it out on his cookery programme some years ago.I wrote it down and then promptly lost it.This was a school favourite for me in the early fifties.
