This is Oma's signature cake (well one of them) that Flash particularly likes and enjoys making. It's traditionally strawberry but other fruits will serve the turn, as you can see. 

Start with the pound-cake base (180g each of sugar, butter and flour and three eggs) and make the tart casing. Cool. No I mean let it cool, although getting that far is cool figuratively speaking as well. 

Make custard: can do it with the old tin of condensed milk, 1.5 cups of milk, 1 egg, 2 tbsp custard powder, vanilla essence, cook for 3 mins (stir) 2 mins (stir) and 1 min in the microwave. You won't need all that amount of custard so you'll have about half left over. What a tragedy, what will you do with that, I wonder? 

Make the fruit: your probably-tinned-fruit-of-choice thickened up with cornflour and sweetened to taste. Has to be pretty firm. 

Serve with whipped cream. 

There is one trick that's hard to achieve. Ideally you'll let this set for a few hours before devouring. Otherwise it's a bit runny. 

Ingredients: 

Flour, butter, sugar (180g), 3 eggs, tin of condensed sweetened milk, 1.5 cups sugar, another egg, vanilla essence, tinned or other fruit, sugar to taste, cornflour. 

Need a tart tin.
