Vanilla Biscuit Dessert (Contributed by Juan’s Mum)

Published: Jul 8, 2012 by Felicia Lim · This post may contain affiliate links

Juan’s granny used to make a special dessert for her daughters when they were younger, and Juan’s mum has also made it for Juan and Fran when they were young. It appears kids love this dessert, which thankfully isn’t as difficult to make as it looks! Those of you with young kids should try it – I bet your kids will love them too!

VANILLA BISCUIT DESSERT (Serves 10 – 15)

Ingredients:

1) 3 packets of vanilla biscuits (around 36 biscuits)
2) 2 litres of milk
3) 1 packet of vanilla-flavoured instant pudding mix
4) 1 packet of chocolate-flavoured instant pudding mix
5) 500ml of unsweetened coffee

Steps:

    If the Vanilla Biscuits are not available in your area, you can substitute Ladyfingers, or make your own out of Pound Cake. Like the recipe Felicia gives here https://www.dishbydish.net/2012/08/12/vanilla-pound-cake/. Just cut the Pound Cake up into rectangles and toast them lightly in the oven to make them firmer. Don’t neglect toasting them or they will fall apart easily when you dip them in the coffee. You can toast them longer for a firmer texture but they should still be soft inside.
