š Lemon posset is bright, tangy and sweet- perfect for these hot late summer days. The best part is that it only requires 3 ingredients you probably have in your kitchen!
Ingredients
2 cups of heavy cream
2/3 cup of granulated sugar
5 tbsp. lemon juice (from about 3 lemons)
Directions
1. Heat the cream and sugar in a small saucepan and stirĀ to dissolve the sugar.
2. Bring to a boil, then adjust the heatĀ so it doesnātĀ boil over and keep it atĀ a medium boil for 5 minutes.
3. Remove the pan from heat, then stir in lemon juice and set aside to cool for 15 minutes.
4. Strain the mixture over a fine mesh colanderĀ into a large measuring cup with a pouring lip.
5. Pour the mixture into 10-12 lemon halves or 6 ramekins. Only fill to 3/4 full so it sets properly.
6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, and top with fresh berries.
š For our vegan friends (or anyone whoās short on heavy cream), substitute the heavy cream for full fat coconut cream mixed with 2 tablespoons of cornstarch instead!
