I'm getting all sorts of reminders that today, the 27th of February, is National Milk Tart Day. (I have a lot of South African sites on my feed.) Here are two links to recipes for melktert, or milk tart, a custard-based tart with a shortbread crust:

Looks tasty! I think I need to try making this.

I was just mindlessly scrolling along the LT page, and then there's the word "Voortrekker" in a picture = WHUT?! And ooh, melktert, which was also WHUT?! But yes, it's Melktert Day, and my wife informed me that she'll be bringing one home :)

If you make it, don't forget to sprinkle cinnamon on top, and it's best served chilled (kinda like most cheesecake, though I recently read a recipe for warm cheesecake. Did not compute c: ). Melktert is really really NOM, one of the few sweet things I eat, so if you make it, I hope you enjoy.

Neat! :)

Thanks for the suggestions!
