Editor’s tips
-
You can also use butter in the base instead of part of the liquid for a richer flavor.
-
For a more pronounced vanilla note, stir 1 teaspoon of vanilla paste into the milk cream.
-
Slices are easiest to cut when well chilled; wipe the knife into a warm damp cloth before each cut.
Conclusion
The two-coloured Easter pastry combines the best of the classic: a tender base and two delicate creams that meld beautifully in the mouth. Better make a double batch – it disappears from the tray incredibly quickly and tastes great even the next day after resting.
