Notes

I use a bit of vanilla paste in the filling for an extra ‘wow factor’. If you don’t have vanilla paste, a scraped vanilla bean is amazing too. I realise, not everyone has these so you can skip and it will be super tasty anyway! Vanilla extract just doesn’t work the same as the paste or scraped bean in this recipe.
