Blueberry and Apple Custard Tarts

24 plain square water cracker biscuits eg (Huntley and Palmers)
1/2 cup custard powder
2 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup Chelsea White Sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
Icing
2 cups Chelsea Icing Sugar
25g butter melted
2-3 tablespoons passionfruit pulp
Use 12 square crackers to line a 20 x 24 cm dish.
Cut crackers with serrated knife to fit if necessary.
Mix custard powder to a smooth paste with a little of the milk.
Separately heat the rest of the milk then add the sugar. With a wire whisk stir in the custard powder paste and continue to heat and stir until boiling and thickened. Remove from heat and add vanilla essence then pour custard over crackers.
Top with remaining crackers, leave until cool, then refrigerate until quite cold and set.
Icing
Combine icing sugar and butter with passionfruit pulp and mix until smooth.
Spread over cooled crackers after they set. Cut into squares when set.
I have made this a few times recently even at work with my student and they loved it. I don't do the passionfruit icing just butter icing and everyone loves them.
My favorite custard square recipe and my go to for my son in law.
The crackers fit in one of the Tupperware containers and it was a regular at Tupperware parties.
