    Most sweets are good, but vanilla slice is absolutely the queen of desserts for me.
    Your recipe looks better than what I have been doing, so that is definitely happening this week.
    Thx so much for sharing so many fantastic, delicious recipes!!

    Thanks, I will make it very soon. A suggestion, cut the puff pastry to size from the bottom of your square pan, maybe it will save you having to cut it again. Have a good day from Quebec, Canada.

    Your a bloody marvel love. It looks great, and yeah the icing does look at little thick. I really like the idea of cutting the pastry first. It's good to see an Aussie doing this. Some of the ppl I watch have kitchens who cost more than our house. Keep up the good work.

    Hi, Love you and your recipes. I’m the lady who asked you for the pikelet recipe. Thanks so much, my Mum was thrilled to have her Mum’s recipe again. Just a little trick for cutting your cooked pastry into equal 6 pieces. Make a grid on a piece of baking paper or the blue pastry plastic sheet and just measure out and draw up your 6 rectangles and then lie it on top and make your cuts. You should be able to make an indent with the pressure of the knife first , remove the paper and cut away. Save the grid until next time if you can. I know this was done months ago but you can still use the idea next time if you need to. Thanks again. One day I will catch up all your great videos. Much love and heaps of hugs. ❤️🌻❤️

    This is an awesome recipe, it sets well. I cooled my custard in the fridge in a bowl first, because mine looked a bit thinner. I liked the honesty of using less icing. Delicious and well done!!! Thank you
