Passionfruit Syllabub

With the abundance of passionfruit in my house at the moment I was looking for a quick easy dessert in order to use them all up! After searching the net I found a recipe for Passionfruit Syllabub.  It was extremely quick and easy to make. The result was alot richer than expected while being tangy and light at the same time.  The recipe stated that it serves 6, I would say it would stretch to 8 easily.   I served it with some interesting biscuits/wafers called “Snow Crepes” that I found in the local Asian grocer.  The syllabub would go well accompanied by fresh fruit and savoiardi (sponge finger) biscuits.  My adapted recipe is below.
