Passionfruit Melting Moments
This recipe is from Passionfruit Australia Inc – you see, passionfruit is in season at the moment! I have four beautiful passionfruit vines here at my property in Gympie and they are just ripening on the vine. They are so delicious and the pulp freezes really well so you can enjoy beautiful passionfruit all the time!
I can’t wait to make this recipe as I’m a huge fan of Melting Moments (just ask my thighs!).

To make the biscuits, beat the butter, icing sugar, lime juice and vanilla extract with an electric mixer for 3 minutes, until pale and creamy.
