PASSIONFRUIT BUTTER ICING
I had watched Mum make passion-fruit icing for many years but had never made it myself until today. Mum used to make a passion-fruit double checker sponge cake filled with whipped cream and topped with passion-fruit icing. We used to pick the passion-fruit from the garden.
INGREDIENTS
- 2 CUPS Icing Sugar ( sifted).
- 25g Butter ( melted).
- 2-3 Tablespoons of Passionfruit pulp. (fresh).
METHOD
1. Sift Icing sugar in a large bowl;
2. Cube softened butter and melt the butter over low heat..
3. Add the Passionfruit Pulp to suit your tastel.
Today when I made it, I forgot to melt the butter. So I added a tiny drop of water. I also use 3 medium size passion fruit.
Mum used to combine her icing by hand. I used the mix master on a slow speed until combined and when I added the tiny drop of cold water, I increased the speed to medium to get a smooth spreadable mixture. It worked perfectly.
This recipe is simple to do.and it has the potential to be adaptable to ice cakes, cup cakes, biscuits, or be a filling between a sponge or biscuits. Just adapt the quantity of the ingredients to suit your needs. It tastes beautifu.
