Work butter into flour until crumbly. Add milk & egg & mix well. Divide into 8 pieces and roll inti circles. Bake layers in cake pans at 400-425F until golden (approx 4 min). Cool & fill.

Heat milk until boiling in double boiler. Mix together eggs, sugar & flour. Beat well. While milk boils, add egg & sugar mixture. Cook until thickened. Cool & fill between 7 pastry layers. Crumb 8th layer and spread on top and sides of torte.
