It’s just a creamy little sugar custard that pops up in old cookbooks over and over, sometimes called a butter tart as well.
Preheat the oven to 210 °C.
Dissolve the yeast in 3 tablespoons warm milk. Add a sugar cube and crush together.
Place the flour in a bowl, and mix in a pinch of salt, the beaten eggs, the warm, melted butter and the castor sugar.
Allow the dough to rise. Grease a tin with butter and coat the inside with flour.
Leave the dough to rise until doubled in volume, covering with a teacloth for 1 to 2 hours. Bake for approximately 30 minutes.
To make the topping: Mix together the castor sugar, the egg and butter.Spread on top of the tart and return to the oven for a further 10 minutes.
