A few days ago, I thought I found a recipe that would work. I baked it last night, and even though this is definitely my best ever, I still had a few problems. I had too much custard, it wouldn&#8217;t all fit in the shell; I tried not to over fill, but it ran over just a bit.<\/p>\n<p>A custard tart is one of those things that you need to eat right away, so I decided to take it to work, where there&#8217;re more eaters.
