Was absolutely amazed with how well this recipe turned out., it’s always been a favourite in our household. If you haven’t tried it definitely give it a go you won’t regret it

Absolutely delicious! Just under 1 hour to cook the custard in my 7litre Slow Cooker. It went a little clumpy as I added some extra custard powder after the cream, it didn’t matter in taste 😁
I made it the traditional way by actually making up the icing (mix icing and boiling water in bowl, pour paste over slice THEN refrigerate) – it didn’t seem right to just dust it.
10/10 recipe. Will make this next time I have guests 😁🥰

Hi! Do you need to let the mix cool down before whisking in the egg yolks?

Thickened cream… so whatever cream you use in your country to beat with a fork or beater to make thicker to put on scones or sponge cakes etc

Thickened cream is minimum 35% fat, and has gelatin added to make it thicker. It’s not like double cream or “pure” cream that has a much higher fat content.

Have made this twice now. Delicious!! Kids love it.When cooking the pastry I put baking paper top and bottom and placed another tray on top to stop it rising. Have added this to my to keep recipes.

I made this the other night in my Russell and Hobbs 6L. It took nearly 2 hours to thicken which was incredibly frustrating but aside from that it was so easy to make and so worth it. Hubby took it to work and had at least three individuals approach him independently to say it was the best vanilla slice they have ever had!

So easy to make and so delicious. I used a larger tray so the slices aren’t as high and cut them into smaller portions. Family loved them.
