Lemon Posset Brûlée

A smooth and creamy dessert with zesty lemon flavor, topped with a caramelized layer for added texture.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 pieces Lemons (Juiced with the pulp scooped out)
  • 100 grams Granulated Sugar (Adjust to taste)
  • 500 ml Heavy Whipping Cream (Coconut cream is a non-dairy alternative)
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (Optional for depth of flavor)
  • Fresh Garnishes (Lemon slices, berries, or mint)

Instructions

  1. Juice the lemons, remove any seeds, and scoop out the pulp.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine heavy whipping cream and granulated sugar. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves (do not boil).
  3. Remove from heat, then stir in lemon juice and optional vanilla extract.
  4. Let the mixture cool for 10-15 minutes, then pour into cups or ramekins. Cover and refrigerate to set for at least 4 hours (overnight is best).
  5. When ready to serve, sprinkle sugar on top of each posset and caramelize with a kitchen torch or under a broiler.
  6. Garnish with lemon slices, berries, or mint, and serve chilled.

Notes

Use fresh lemons for best flavor. Adjust sweetness to your preference before cooling.
