I decided to make this cake since I had been given some delicious passion fruits from a dear friend with the charge, 'make something magnificent!'
I'm not sure if this cake could really be classed as magnificent, but it is quite yummy.
Now, as things usually go, when I finally decided to cook something with these yummy passion fruits, certain members of my family had eaten almost every last one. There were 3 left.
Having already started making the batter I sent Sweetyboy to the supermarket to bring back some passion fruits. From the amount I scraped out of the ones I had I guessed I probably still needed about 8 passion fruits. Passion fruits were $1.69 at IGA. Woah!
So I ended up buying the passion fruit in syrup that comes in a can. not as classy, but it did the job.
After the allocated time, I checked it with a skewer. The skewer came out covered in batter so I put the cake back in the oven, and promptly forgot about it :(
The verdict: Be careful not to overcook this cake. I did and it was a little dry. I am sure if cooked for the correct time it should have been lovely and moist.
It is still yummy though.

I can vouch for this recipe - I've made it a few times and it is a favourite of ours, very tasty! A tip - if you think it might be a bit dry poke a few holes in the cake with a skewer before pouring the syrup over the cake.
