TM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Awesome receipe, but I changed it slightly. This was my second attempt and I made some small changes. In the first attempt I focused on the recommendations from previous comments but found the custard still very rubbery and very sweet too. The changes are as follows:
1. Decreased the sugar to 180 grams. Could even go to 160 grams.
2. Decreased to cornflour to 60 grams.
3. Increased the custard powder to 90 grams.
4. Kept the second cook to 4.30 minutes. It was a perfect pouring consistency.
Will make it again for sure😜
I made this for the first time and followed your tips above. I also substituted the full cream milk for vanilla flavoured soy milk. The colour of the custard was more like a caramel colour but the slice was very tasty.

Hi Kerry, I wouldn't cut the custard powder as this is what helps to give it flavour. Definitely cut the cornflour to no more than half (50g) as this what thickens it and too much will make it more rubbery.

-ONLY USE FULL CREAM MILK
-REDUCE CORNFLOUR TO 80gm’s

-And steer clear of WHITE WING’s cornflour as it turns the custard rubbery!

Unfortunately this recipe was terrible I'm a huge fan of Vanilla Slice and was super excited to make it. The custard was so rubbery - I couldn't even finish my first bite. I even reduced the 2nd lot of cooking time to 4.5 minutes. Would not recommend this recipe.

Perfect! I made this today for the first time and rapt that it worked so well and was so easy. After reading all of the comments I also made some changes. They are shown in brackets. The custard was firm enough to stay in place yet was lovely and creamy. Thanks for sharing your great recipe.

I reduced cornflour to 65g
I reduced cornflour to 65g and reduced final cook time to 4 1/2 min. I also used 4 passion fruit and then had to increase the icing sugar so that it wasn't too runny.
Yum!!! Everyone loved it. I think the custard was possibly a little rubbery, but was still delicious.
Terrible. Was so hard and
Terrible. Was so hard and rubbery it was disgusting. I followed suggestions to lessen cornflour and cook for less time but it is still terrible. A waste of ingredients.

Thanks placebo00 for your tip.
I also reduced the cornflour to 65g and decreased final cook time to 4.5 minutes. I still found the custard quite firm/rubbery. Perhaps next time ill decrease cornflour to 50gs.
Icing : i thought i was being smart and replaced the boiling water with passionfruit. Didn't quite set but i love the extra passionfruit taste.
Overall....i did enjoy my vanilla slice and ill probably make it again. Quick & simple recipe

Delicious!! so easy to make. Custard a bit rubbery but Not of real concern. Nice and easy to do! It was horrible having to wait so long for it to set and then ice... We tried it as soon as I put the icing on
