Introduction

Wonderful creamy custard-like dessert Wonderful creamy custard-like dessert
Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    2 serving Lemon, fresh squeezed, juice of one whole lemon
    2 cup, fluid (yields 2 cups whip Heavy Whipping Cream
    2/3 cup erythritol

Tips

I added extra lemon juice and it was great!


Directions

Finely grate the zest and juice the two lemons.
Pour 1/2 cup of the lemon juice into a small saucepan. Add the grated zest and the caster sugar and stir. Bring the mixture to a slow, gentle simmer and then leave to one side.
Bring the cream to a gentle boil. A heavy boil will spoil the cream and ruin the recipe.
Slowly whisk in the syrup then strain into a clean jug. For a very tangy posset, don't strain.
Let the posset cool slightly then pour into small ramekins or glasses.
Leave to cool completely then chill in the refrigerator for several hours. The cream will become a silky, thick cream.
Remove from the refrigerator and leave for 5 minutes before serving.

Serving Size: Makes 3 full ramekins (could split into 6 ramekines)
