Cooking Time

15 minutes

Makes

about 25

Ingredients

  • 125g butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup (115g) plain flour
  • 1/4 cup (45g) pure icing sugar
  • 1/3 cup (50g) cornflour
  • 1 tsp finely grated lemon rind
  • Passionfruit filling

  • 60g butter, softened
  • 1 cup (150g) pure icing sugar
  • 1 passionfruit
  • 2 tsp lemon juice

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 160°C. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Use an electric mixer to beat butter until pale and creamy. Add flour, icing sugar, cornflour and lemon rind; stir with a wooden spoon until well combined.
  2. Hand-roll teaspoonfuls of mixture into balls. Place on lined tray, about 3cm apart. Use a fork dusted with cornfl our to gently flatten to 2cm diameter. Bake for 15 minutes or until lightly golden and cooked through. Set aside on the tray to cool.
  3. To make the filling, use an electric mixer to beat the butter until pale and creamy. Add the icing sugar, passionfruit pulp and lemon juice and beat until well combined.
  4. Place filling in a small piping bag fitted with a fluted nozzle. Pipe a little filling onto the underside of a biscuit. Sandwich with a second biscuit. Repeat with remaining biscuits and filling.
