Cómo preparar Vanilla Slice
- Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a 23cm square baking pan with foil, allowing the foil to overhang the sides.
- Place pastry sheets on lightly greased baking trays. Bake for 6-8 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool completely.
- Gently flatten each pastry sheet with your hands.
- Fit one pastry sheet into the prepared pan.
- In a saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornflour, and custard powder.
- Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture boils and thickens.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 3 minutes, or until very thick and smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in egg yolks and vanilla extract.
- Pour the hot custard over the pastry in the pan.
- Top with the remaining pastry sheet, flat side up. Press down gently.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the custard to set.
- **Prepare the Passionfruit Icing:** In a heatproof bowl, sift icing sugar. Add softened butter, passionfruit pulp and juice. Gradually add water, mixing until you have a stiff, spreadable paste. If necessary, gently warm the icing over a pan of simmering water until it reaches desired consistency.
- Spread the passionfruit icing evenly over the top of the vanilla slice.
- Cut into squares and serve. Best served chilled. Store leftover slices covered in the refrigerator (do not freeze or microwave).
