I had one sheet Puff Pastry in freezer for a while and I needed to use it. I decided to make this yummy snack. This is a super easy version of Australian Vanilla Slices. It’s a little bit messier to eat, but they taste almost the same. Thick Custard can be replaced with Whipped Cream, Azuki Paste, Jam, Nut Spread, etc.

Method
  1. Make Vanilla Custard first. Place Egg Yolks and Sugar in a saucepan and mix well. Add Flour and mix well. Add warmed Milk and mix well. Cook over a medium to low heat, stirring constantly until custard comes to the boil and thickens. Allow to cool.
  2. *Note: Custard can be quickly made in the microwave. Find how to make it here.
