Passionfruit Yoyos
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line two large baking trays with baking paper and set aside.
- Place the butter and icing sugar in the bowl of an electric mixed and beat together until pale and fluffy. Add the vanilla and beat until combined. Using a wooden spoon, mix in the cornflour and plain flour until a dough forms.
- Form ½ tablespoonfuls of the dough into balls and place onto the prepared trays, leaving a 3-4cm gap between each ball, as the biscuits will spread. Flatten each one gently with the back of a damp fork.
- Transfer into the oven for 12 minutes or until the biscuits begin to colour. Remove from the oven and cool on the tray for 10 minutes, before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- To make the icing, beat the sugar and butter in the bowl of an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add the passionfruit and mix to combine.
- Get the kids to help you assemble, by spreading the base of a biscuit with icing, and then joining with another biscuit. Repeat with remaining biscuits and icing.
- Dust with icing sugar and serve.
