How about trying a simple and delicious Creamy Lemon Posset? It’s a classic British dessert that requires just three main ingredients and is incredibly easy to make!
Ingredients:
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- Zest of 2 lemons
- Juice of 2 lemons
Instructions:
- In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream and granulated sugar over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture comes to a gentle simmer.
- Once the cream mixture is simmering, remove it from the heat and stir in the lemon zest and lemon juice. Mix well to combine.
- Let the mixture cool slightly for about 5 minutes, then strain it through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the lemon zest.
- Pour the strained mixture into serving glasses or ramekins, dividing it evenly among them. Chill the glasses in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until the possets are set and firm.
- Once chilled and set, garnish the Creamy Lemon Possets with a sprinkle of additional lemon zest or a dollop of whipped cream if desired. Serve and enjoy!
