Pastry and Custard Slice

Ingredients:

 

Custard Slice: 

  • 1 roll of convenience puff pastry (thawed naturally) 
  • 3 tablespoons Irish Yogurt Clonakilty Custard Style Yogurt 
  • 9floz/250ml cream-lightly whipped 
  • 12oz/350g fresh mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries etc) 
  • 1 egg  
  • 100ml milk  

 

Glaze: 

  • 5oz/150g icing sugar 
  • 3-4 dessert spoons of boiling water 
  • 2oz/50g toasted flaked almonds 

 

Method:

  • Preheat the oven to 190C/375F/Gas Mark 5 
  • Lightly flour your work surface. 
  • Once the roll of puff pastry has defrosted cut it in two (lengthways) 
  • Prick the pastry lightly all over with a fork and transfer it to a flat baking sheet. 
  • Mix the egg and milk together to make a light egg wash and brush all over the top of the pastry. 
  • Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until the pastry is golden brown and well risen. 
  • Allow the pastry to cool down. Meanwhile mix the whipped cream and the Irish Yogurt Clonakilty Custard Style Yogurt. Split each piece of pastry in two. 
  • On a large chopping board place one piece of the cooked pastry and spread it with some of the custard flavoured whipped cream on top and then scatter with the selection of mixed berries. 
  • Next mix the icing sugar with enough boiled water to make a paste and with a hot palette knife spread the paste all over the top of the second piece of pastry. 
  • Place the second sheet of cooked puff pastry on the top of the fruit and press down gently. 
  • Repeat with the other two pieces. 
  • Scatter with some toasted flaked almonds and a little grated chocolate. Decorate the top with some halved strawberries. 
  • Using a sharp warm knife cut the entire dessert into slices and serve as soon as possible with another healthy dollop of Irish Yogurt Clonakilty Custard Style Yogurt
