Lemon Posset
As I was creating, building, and designing my website as well as videotaping, doing voice overs, editing, recording, writing, plus trying to create more recipes, the last thing I had time for was making dessert. David and I don’t have major “sweet tooth’s” 🦷 but it’s always nice to have dessert once in a while. With crazy-busy schedules, there are times when we need to prepare something extremely fast because of; unexpected guests, a sudden craving, or simply to enjoy a dessert after the main course.
In this episode, I’m sharing one of the quickest dessert recipes of all – yes I know there are quicker ones that you can buy at the store 🛒 already wrapped with a barcode and a price tag – and it’s my Lemon Posset!
This recipe requires just 3 ingredients and about 15 minutes of your precious time. When it’s done, it will need 2-3 hours 🕒 in the refrigerator to set up and at the end, you have a nice elegant dessert to serve. You can speed up the process by placing your bowls or ramekins in the freezer for 5 minutes. You might think what will 5 minutes do… lots but don’t let it sit longer because the texture will change and that’s not what we want!
Making Lemon Posset is simple except for one thing; the cream can boil over. In the video 📽, I share with you how to avoid this disaster (and cleaning the stove top after a big mess) and make this recipe even easier.
You can serve it with cookies 🍪 like Madeleines, and top it with berries and whipped cream… whatever you heart desires. Give it a try, I’m sure you’ll love it 💖.
Bon Appétit!🍽

Can I replace the lemon juice with pineapple juice as alternative? Well I think the name of the dessert should be changed as well if I replaced one of the ingredient.. Want to know if it is possible, but this is great! Thank you.
Actually I think this would be a great recipe! You should definitely try it… You’ve got something going here! You could call it Pineapple Posset! Please let me know how it turns out! Have a great day!
