Ingredients
- 6 lemons, divided
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 2/3 cup sugar, plus extra for bruleeing the tops of the possets
Directions
- Cut 4 lemons in half and remove the flesh filling because you will use the lemon shells as bowls for the possets.
- In a 2-quart saucepan pan over medium-high heat, combine your heavy cream, sugar, juice of half a lemon and zest of one lemon. Whisk together and let the mixture come to a hard simmer for 8 minutes, stirring consistently.
- Pour the cream mixture into the lemon shells, filling each half lemon, and place them in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set.
- Before serving, sprinkle the top with sugar and using a blowtorch, brown the sugar to create a hardened sugar.
- Serve immediately!
