directions

  • line a lamington tin or even a roasting pan with foil with enough extra to fold back over the top. Dimensions must be in multiples of SAO biscuits; either 3x4 or 4x3.
  • place SAO Biscuits in a 3x4 or 4x3 pattern on bottom (if need be use rolled paper to make a 'wall' to hold the edge.
  • Pour thickened cream into bowl and pour pack of vanilla instant pudding mix over the top (can add a few drops of vanilla extract or essence for added flavour). Whisk quickly and make sure all powder is dissolved, it thickens quickly.
  • pour mix over base of biscuits, spread as evenly as you can.
  • place an equal number of SAO biscuits over the filling, pressing down to even it out if need be.
  • make a tangy lemon icing with icing sugar, melted marg (about 1 teaspoonful) and enough lemon juice and maybe a little boiling water - spread over the top of the top layer of SAO biscuits then seal with the extra foil left over.
  • Leave in fridge overnight.
  • take all out of foil and cut each SAO in half plus cut between each biscuit square. Makes 24.
  • Tip: must be left overnight, but 24 hours is better.

  1. What an easy vanilla slice, made it for an afternoon tea/childrens birthday party. I made the recipe up as is and got heaps of positive comments but next time I think that I will try lattice biscuits and maybe put some passionfruit in the icing, Thankyou for posting this recipe
