Servings: 8
Ingredients
Lemon Posset
- 2 cups Heavy Cream
- ¾ cup Granulated White Sugar
- 2 Juice of Ripe Lemons
- Lemon Zest
- 4 Lemons, Halved and Hulled
Instructions
- Hollow out the pulp of the 4 extra lemons to use as the serving dish for the final dessert. Alternatively, you may opt to use ramekins. Serving Tip: If you can find lemons with leaves, it will make the presentation even cuter! Set aside.
- Combine 2 cups cream and sugar in a small saucepan. Stir together and bring to a gentle boil, cook for 2 to 3 minutes over medium heat.
- Stir in lemon juice.
- Pour the lemon cream mixture into hulled lemon cups or small ramekins and refrigerate until set, about 5 hours. Note: After a couple of hours, you should see the mixture start to set.
- Put on the finishing touches - like fresh mint or lavender, and serve. I like to add extra lemon zest on top, too! Enjoy!
Notes
Note: Don't wan't to use so much sugar? You can adjust the amount of sugar to your liking or even add in whole vanilla bean for extra flavor.
