Passionfruit Melting Moments

My family generally make gifts to give to each other on Christmas day and almost as much time goes into the thought and consideration of the gifts as it does to the making. 

This year I tried a new recipe for Melting Moments - one of my most favourite biscuits ever. They do melt in your mouth, and the best bit was they were held together with a passionfruit cream. Yum! 

The recipe was so delicious that I want to share it with you...
