Melting Moments with Passionfruit Frosting

INGREDIENTS: (makes approx 30 biscuits)

• ¾ cup Nuttelex buttery or Dairy free spread

• ½ cup self-raising flour

• ½ cup plain flour

• ½ cup cornflour

• ½ cup icing sugar

• ½ tsp vanilla essence

• ½ tsp lemon zest

FROSTING INGREDIENTS: 

• 1/4 cup Nuttelex buttery or Dairy free spread

• ½ cup icing sugar

• 2tblsp passionfruit pulp

• 1 tblsp lemon juice

• 1 tsp lemon zest

• 1 tblsp Icing sugar for dusting

METHOD:

1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the Nuttelex, icing sugar & vanilla essence together with an electric beater until mixture is fluffy. The Nuttelex will result in biscuits which are more white in colour & the spread will result in a more yellow biscuit.

2. Sift in the self raising flour & the corn flour. With a spatula mix until the flours are well combined.

3. Roll 2 tsps of the mixture & place them onto a lined baking tray.

4. Use a fork dusted in cornflour to gently press down on each ball.

5. Bake at 160ºC for 15mins.

6. Remove from oven & allow them to cool on a rack before icing.

7. For the frosting, beat the Nuttelex & icing sugar in a bowl with an electric mixer until light & fluffy.

8. Then mix in the passionfruit syrup. If you’d like to make them with lemon frosting, simply replace the passionfruit with the lemon zest & juice.

9. Spread or pipe the frosting over the flat side of a biscuit & then sandwich together with another.

10. Dust with icing sugar & enjoy!
