Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Combine 1/2 cup margarine and 1/2 cup sugar in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer on low speed until creamy. Add 2 cups flour, 1 egg, baking powder, and salt; mix well until dough comes together.
- Press dough into bottom and sides of two 8-inch pie plates to form crusts.
- Bake in the preheated oven until lightly golden, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.
- Combine milk and 1 teaspoon margarine in a saucepan over medium-low heat; bring to a boil. Remove from heat.
- Mix 1 1/2 cup sugar, 2 eggs, 2 1/2 teaspoons flour, cornstarch, and vanilla extract into a smooth paste in a bowl. Pour over hot milk in the saucepan.
- Return saucepan to medium heat and stir milk mixture until thick, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Divide milk mixture evenly between the cooled crusts. Sprinkle cinnamon on top. Cool until filling is set, about 30 minutes.

[email protected]1/5 stars. This milk tart was the worst dessert I've ever had. The crust was like cardboard and the filling was like glue. I threw the whole thing away.

[email protected]This recipe is a waste of time and ingredients. The milk tart was bland and flavorless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly, but my milk tart turned out a complete disaster. The crust was burnt and the filling was curdled. I'm not sure what went wrong.

[email protected]The milk tart was good, but it didn't quite live up to my expectations. I found the crust to be a bit too thick and the filling to be a bit too runny.

[email protected]This milk tart is a winner! It's easy to make and always a hit with my family and friends. I love the fact that I can use store-bought puff pastry to make it even easier.

[email protected]This milk tart was a delightful treat! The creamy, custard-like filling was perfectly complemented by the crumbly pastry crust. I especially enjoyed the hint of cinnamon and nutmeg in the filling. It added a warm and inviting flavor.
