One of my favourite desserts of all time. I don’t often have them but when I do they must be exceptional. Nothing disappoints me more than having a poorly made, tasteless vanilla slice. This vanilla slice is made without dairy or sugar. The base also is made without gluten.

Ingredients:
2 240ml cans of coconut milk
2 handfuls of dates
2 whole eggs
6 egg yolks
2 cups of desiccated coconut
3 tbs of coconut oil
6 tabs of stevia
1 tsp of raw cacoa powder
2 tbs of flaxseed meal
1-2 tsp of vanilla essence
1-2 tsp of cinnamon
1 lemon zest

Method:
Create the base first
Pre-heat oven to 180dg
Line a baking tray with baking paper
Whisk two eggs in a bowl
Chop dates and blend in a high speed blender until dates become small chunks
Add dates into bowl with desiccated coconut and flaxseed meal and stir well
Pour into baking tray and spread out finely
Place in oven and bake for around 15-20 minutes.
Check on crust to make sure it doesn’t burn

Method for Filling:
Separate 6 egg yolks in a bowl
Add 3 tabs of stevia to yolks and beat with a beater until yolks are light in colour
Grate the zest of one lemon and add to the egg yolk
Add the hardened cream of the coconut only and not the water and beat with beater until well mixed together

Add vanilla essence and cinnamon to taste
Pour mixture into the baking tray on top of the crust

Place in oven for around 20-25 minutes at around 160dg
Once the top turns light brown, check with a knife, if knife comes out clean, custard is ready

Allow to cool once cooked then place in the fridge until cold
Once the custard is cold, cut the slice in half and place one half on top of the other

Melt coconut oil into a small container and add 1 tsp of stevia and stir well
Using a spoon, coat the top of the slice then place into the fridge or freezer for a couple of minutes to allow the icing to set. This will only take a couple of minutes. Repeat this process approx 3-4 times. A white coating of icing should be formed.

Leave a couple of tbs of coconut oil, add 1 tsp of raw cacoa powder and 1 stevia tab
Stir well then add add to top of icing.
