My Australian mother used to make this more than 40 years ago. She only made it 2 or 3 times as she said it took too much time but I still remember it as being delicious.. so much so that I decided to look for it on the internet... and guess what? I am going to try it again. It tastes yummy. I also remember her using gooseberries in one of the layers?
