how do you make yo yo biscuits

[amarillis]

Aaaah yoyo's one of my favourites! The jingle from the advert came back to me...

 

Bees make honey
And there's honey in yo-yo Arnott's Yo-Yo biscuits
Cows give the milk and milk becomes butter
And they're both in Arnott's Yo Yo
Eggs by the dozen and runny honey from busy bees
In biscuits like Grandma used to make
Butter, eggs, milk and honey
Biscuits delicious to fill lots of dishes
Goodness, what a biscuit.

 

Sorry I don't have any more specifics, I'll keep looking...

Passionfruit Yoyo Biscuits

Yoyo biscuits are a classic combination where two simple biscuits are joined with a vanilla filling. We like to think we have improved on this classic by using a passionfruit filling - we'll leave it to you decide whether we have or not.

 300 g (10 1/2 oz) plain flour
300 g (10 1/2 oz) soft butter
100 g (3 1/2 oz) icing sugar
100 g (3 1/2 oz) custard powder
Pinch of salt
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 passionfruit
60 g (2 oz) melted butter
240 g (8 oz) icing sugar

Preheat oven to 180�C (350�F).
Beat together flour, butter, icing sugar, custard powder, salt and vanilla. Roll into small balls and place on a greased baking tray. Press down with the prongs of a fork to form a round biscuit. Bake in preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, until cooked but not coloured. Allow to cool completely. Strain the pulp from passionfruit to remove seeds. Mix with butter and icing sugar until smooth. Spoon a small amount of passionfruit butter onto one biscuit and top with another biscuit. Makes 18.
