Mama Baking

Milk tarts hap­pen to be one of the most deli­cious desserts ever and it is not nearly as hard as one would think.It is actu­ally pretty easy! Thanks to the push and the shove from my friend Sameerah I have con­quered it! (She also hap­pens to be the most awe­some milk tart teacher in the world! She is a woman of tech­nol­ogy and often forces me teaches me to cook fun recipes and yummy desserts using black berry messenger.)

Deen loves milk tart and in the cutest way ever he  comes to me and say “Mama, can you make me milk tart with love?”
