OK, I got off my bum and chased it up and found it.
(IVP = Instant Vanilla Pudding)


Yummy Decadent Vanilla Slice

2 sheets of frozen puff pastry
300ml thickened cream
2x85g (or thereaboots) packets IVP
2 cups (500ml) milk

Preheat the oven to 180C

Put pastry sheets on two lighly greased baking trays and prick them *all*
over with a fork. Bake for 20mins or until golden brown.
Remove and set aside to cool.

Using electric beaters whip the cream to soft peaks.

Put the IVP mix into another bowl and mix with the milk with a whisk.

Quickly fold the whipped cream into the pudding mix, then spread over the
top side of one of the pastry sheets. Put the other sheet on top, flat side
up.

Now, for the frosting, I cheat. I couldn't be arsed using icing sugar and
butter and hot water......... so I use Betty Crockers Vanilla Frosting mix.

Put it in the fridge to chill off.... and then spread fresh passionfruit
over if you wish.

This recipe is so easy, it has few ingredients, but people go apeshit over
it whenever I make it and take it to parties!! :-)
