Ingredients
• 250g unsalted butter, softened
• 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
• 1/2 cup pure icing sugar, sifted
• 2 cups plain flour
• 1/3 cup cornflour
• Passionfruit filling
• 60g butter, softened

• 1 cup pure icing sugar, sifted
Method
1. Preheat oven to 160°C. Line 2 baking trays with non-stick baking paper.
2. Using an electric mixer, cream butter, vanilla and icing sugar until light and fluffy. Sift flours over butter mixture. Beat on low speed until a soft dough forms.
3. Roll heaped teaspoonfuls of mixture into small balls. Place on trays. Using a fork dipped in flour, lightly flatten each biscuit until 1cm thick. Bake for 15 minutes or until firm. Cool on trays for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
4. Make passionfruit filling: Using an electric mixer, beat butter until light and fluffy. Stir in passionfruit pulp and icing sugar.
5. Spread flat side of 1 biscuit with 1 teaspoon filling. Top with another biscuit. Repeat with remaining biscuits and filling. Dust with icing sugar. Serve.
