I have a wonderfully light and easy lemon mousse recipe to
share with you today! These Lemon Creams only take a few
minutes to prepare and are the perfect ending to a light meal!
All you have to do is heat the cream, sugar and lemon zest for
about 5 minutes then strain it into some pretty glasses or even
you favorite tea cups! The Lemon Creams do need a couple of
hours to chill and set. That’s the hard part!!
LEMON CREAMS
Ingredients:
1 1/3 cups heavy cream
1/3 cup minus 1 tbsp sugar
zest and juice of 2 lemons
extra zest to garnish if desired
Method:
Heat the cream, sugar and lemon zest in a pan
over medium heat until it almost boils. Reduce
the heat to low and cook gently for 3 minutes,
until the sugar dissolves.
Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Pour
through a strainer into a pourable container, then
pour into pretty glasses or tea cups. Cool, then chill
for a couple of hours or overnight. Decorate with
lemon zest. Wonderful served with Lemon
Shortbread.
The recipe says that it serves 4, but I only had enough
to fill 3 small glass bowls. I suggest that you double
the recipe if you need more.
So easy!! So delicious!! Thanks for visiting!!
