We loved this when we were kids in the 60’s. Today people would say “Oh my goodness, all that fat and sugar!”. But unlike kids today, we lived very active lives, most of it outdoors and we didn’t live in centrally heated houses. We needed those calories for energy and warmth. We also didn’t constantly snack in between meals.

Here in Aotearoa/New Zealand when l was at boarding school 50 years ago, we had a pudding that was only ever known as Boarders' Favourite. It had a base of buttery cornflakes flavoured with cocoa and a touch of cinnamon, a layer of custard and a meringue top. It really, really was our favourite! Sadly it disappeared from the menu and despite much pleading, was never seen again. I'm guessing that when that particular cook left, she must have taken her recipe with her. I've tried so many times over the years to replicate it but, have never even come close. All these years later l still think of it and every time l see a dessert with cornflakes l get so excited, thinking THIS might be the one. This DOES look great and l'll probably make it but, alas, it is not THE Boarders' Favourite. If anyone has ever heard of it or something similar, l would be so grateful if they would share a recipe.

When I make homemade raspberry jam in the summer I will of course use that! Thankyou for the idea! I wasn’t lucky enough to have this at my school. We had chocolate or vanilla tray cake covered with thick icing and served with custard. They were also pretty epic to be fair! Just 1 last thing that was way more than a TSP of vanilla but you can be forgiven because you want a custard to be full on with vanilla!

I would have put a drop of yellow colouring in the custard to make it more appealing and looking like custard. ❤

Yes good choice, some of the custard powders are already yellow this one isn't. Down to choice! Best, Rik

Loved this but my favourite growing up in the Midlands was chocolate concrete with hot custard. Living in Canada it took me years to find the recipe on the dinner ladies website. It’s basically a chocolate shortbread.

I have never heard of or seen that before, and I'm 54 this year. I wish we had it in our schools, in both the counties I grew up in. The only cornflake dessert we had, was chocolate cornflake cakes ❤

It reminds me a little of the American pecan pie, only with corn flakes. It looks delicious.

A family friend wasn’t allowed to come to our house without bringing a Pineapple and custard tart! We went mad for it! Pastry case filled with layer of crushed pineapple, topped with Birds Custard and chilled in the fridge. Those were the days! Proper homemade puddings!

Yes! a fantastic old style dessert. A quick way too is to use a jam of choice and then custard over the top. Lovely cold with a cuppa. Best, Rik
