I adore passionfruit and these melt-in-your-mouth shortbreads are divine!
Ingredients:-
- 185g unsalted butter
- 1 tsp finely grated lemon
- ¾ cup icing sugar
- 3 passionfruit
- ¾ cup cornflour
- 1¼ cups self raising flour
Method:
- Cream together butter, lemon rind and sifted icing sugar until fluffy.
- Add passionfruit pulp, mix well.
- Fold in sifted cornflour and self raising flour.
- Put mixture piping fitted with fluted tube, and pipe in decorative shapes on to oven tray lined with baking paper.(tip wet oven tray slightly with water to hold baking paper still) I like to make a figure 8 as it makes nice shapes.
- Bake in oven at 180°C or 160°C fan forced for 12 minutes until lightly golden.
- Cool on wire racks.
- When cold dip tops in passionfruit icing. (You can omit this if you like them as they are)
Icing:
- ½ cup pure icing sugar
- 1 tsp butter
- 1 passionfruit
- Combine sifted icing sugar, softened butter and passionfruit pulp, mix until smooth. Stir over hot water until glossy.
Makes about 40-50 depending on the size make them.
