"This is a simple and classic Aussie dessert. The recipe was given to me by a friend many years ago. It's crispy on the outside, but soft and gooey on the inside. The classic pavlova uses kiwi fruit and is topped with sweetened passionfruit pulp."

Original is 8 servings
  • You can use any fruit of your choice: berries, pineapple, etc.

This was easy to make and turned out great. I made half of the recipe, but I will make individual ones next time, b/c for two of us, it's too hard to try to save the part we don't eat! Made for SWT20018
