Recipe's preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 220 degrees celsius. Place puff pastry on baking trays and bake in oven for 10-12 minutes until just brown. Remove from oven and press down a spatula while still hot to flatten. Allow to cool. Place sugar in TMX bowl, and grind on speed 9 for 5 seconds. Add remaining ingredients and cook on 80 degrees for 15 minutes at speed 4.  Have a taste of the custard and if it tastes too floury, cook for another 5 minutes at 80 degrees. Increase temperature to 100 degrees and cook for 7 minutes at speed 4. Line a 25cm square tin with baking paper, so that it extends up all four sides of the tin.  Trim pastry sheet to fit the bottom of the tin, and place in the tin with browned side facing up.  Pour custard over pastry, spreading it out nice and smooth. Trim remaining pastry sheet to fit top of the tin and place on top of custard with browned side facing down. Refrigerate for 4-5 hours until completely cold (you can pop it in the freezer for the first 30-40 minutes to speed up the chilling process but don't forget to take it out and place in the fridge.) Spread top of slice with icing made from a little melted butter, icing sugar and hot water. Allow to set before removing slice from tin, cutting into slices and serving.  Makes 16 large squares.

    The recipe is incomplete. What does "Spread top of slice with icing made from a little melted butter, icing sugar and hot water."

    Why no quantities? I have no idea how much icing sugar I should use, how much melted butter etc.

    I have never seen a recipe that just finishes off with no details on what is required.

    The icing is part of the slice so it should have the required ingredients listed.

    Cooked this yesterday - as I had egg yolks left over. Totally winner for my family and extended family. We didn't quite let it set before cutting so maybe 3/4hours after making, but everyone loved it. Thank-you.

    Could you switch out vanilla bean paste with vanilla extract do you think?

    Would it make much difference and would you do 1/1 ratio?

    Sorry, have just edited the recipe to reduce the amount of custard powder and cornflour from 75g each to 40g each. This should fix it!

    Submitted by BreeC on 3. April 2015 - 10:16.

    slice is ok. Custard is like rubber. even when cooking as per Maia73's instructions. Would reduce the time further...and maybe try keeping the temp at 80 degrees (Rather than increasing to 100 degrees half way).

    I made this for my dad who loves vanilla slice and it was sooooo good.  I only cooked the custard for 7 minutes at 80 depress  initially and then for the further 7minutes at 100 degrees and it was perfect.  Topped with vanilla icing - just perfect.

    I've found the 15 minutes is more than enough.. No need to do another 7 minutes.. End up with thick unspreadable custard..

  • Not really a fan of this

    Submitted by Thermonk on 21. December 2013 - 23:26.

    Not really a fan of this custard. To me it tastes too eggy and dry. Unlike a previous poster the fact that it sets so firm spoiled it for me. I like my custard to be sweet and creamy
