Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 23 lemons)
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Fresh berries, for garnish (optional)
  • Mint leaves, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Making Lemon Posset is a breezy process. Follow these steps to delight your taste buds:

  1. Heat the Cream: In a medium saucepan, pour the heavy cream and add the granulated sugar. Heat this mixture over medium heat until it begins to simmer, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
  2. Simmer: Allow the cream and sugar mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes. It should thicken slightly.
  3. Add Lemon: Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the fresh lemon juice and lemon zest, mixing well to combine.
  4. Cool the Mixture: Let the mixture cool for about 10 minutes to prevent it from being too hot when poured into serving dishes.
  5. Pour into Dishes: Carefully pour the cooled mixture into small cups or glasses. Leave some space at the top, as it will expand slightly while setting.
  6. Chill: Cover the cups with plastic wrap or lids and place them in the refrigerator. Allow them to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
  7. Garnish: When ready to serve, remove from the refrigerator and garnish with fresh berries and mint leaves for a pop of color and added flavor.

These steps will help you create a smooth and creamy Lemon Posset that everyone will love. The transformation from simple ingredients into a beautiful dessert is both rewarding and satisfying.
