Mandarin Cream Pie
1 hour 20 minutes
This is a recipe that was very popular in the 60s and 70s when evaporated milk was in everybody's cupboard. My husband loves it, and when I made it again for my children it has become one of my children's favourites. Looks nice enough to have at a birthday or dinner party.

- Base: Mix crushed digestive biscuits and melted butter together and press into the bottom of a large flan dish (mine is about 25cm). Put it into the fridge to cool fully.
- Filling: Heat the juice from the tin of mandarins and melt the jelly into it, then leave to cool while you whisk the milk.
- Drizzle the cooled jelly mixture into the milk mixture gradually (I use an electric hand whisk).
- Keep whisking until it thickened, mix any broken bits of mandarins in.
- To Serve: Spoon as much filling mix on top of the biscuit base as you can (there will be some left over so you may need a helper to clean up the bowl!).
- Arrange mandarin segments onto top and refrigerate for at least an hour.
