Ingredients

  • 2 cups self-raising flour, sifted-substitute whole meal self-raising flour
  • ½ cup caster sugar
  • 120g white chocolate, chopped
  • 125g butter, melted, cooled
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 2 eggs, lightly whisked
  • ¼ cup passionfruit pulp
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Passionfruit Icing
  • 1 ¼ cups pure icing sugar
  • 2 tsp hot water
  • 1 ½ tbsp passionfruit pulp

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Lightly grease a 12-hole 1/3-cup capacity muffin pan, or line with muffin papers and spray lightly with oil.

Melt the butter and let it cool.

Combine flour, sugar and chocolate in a bowl. Make a well in the centre.

Whisk butter, milk, egg, passionfruit and vanilla in a jug. Pour into well. Gently fold until just combined.

Three-quarter fill muffin holes with mixture.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Stand in the pan for 5 minutes. Turn onto a wire rack.

Passionfruit Icing - Stir icing sugar, water and passionfruit in a bowl until smooth. Spoon over muffins, allowing icing to drizzle down the sides.

Allow to set. Serve.
