The Passionfruit Vanilla Slice is a dessert that is popular in many parts of the world. It typically consists of two layers of puff pastry sandwiched with a vanilla custard and topped with a thin layer of icing. In this recipe, we have added passion fruit pulp to the custard, which adds a tangy and refreshing twist to this classic dessert. The combination of vanilla and passion fruit is truly delicious and something you and your guests will enjoy.

Instructions

1.Preheat oven to 200°C. Roll out the puff pastry and place on a lined baking tray, bake for 20 minutes until golden brown and puffy.
2.In a medium saucepan, place custard powder, caster sugar and milk. Cook over low heat until the mixture thickens, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla essence.
3.In a separate bowl, whip the cream until it forms soft peaks. Fold in the passion fruit pulp and custard.
4.Spread the custard mixture evenly over one sheet of the cooked puff pastry.
5.Top with the second sheet of puff pastry and press down lightly. Refrigerate until completely chilled.
6.For the icing, mix together icing sugar and enough water to make a smooth, runny mixture. Pour icing over the chilled vanilla slice and refrigerate until set.
