Instructions
1. Prepare the lemons: Cut the lemons in half and carefully scoop out the insides to create little bowls.
2. Make the custard: In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of heavy cream, 1/3 cup of granulated sugar, 3 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1/2 tablespoon of lemon zest, and a pinch of salt. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves, then remove from heat. Let it sit for 10 minutes to thicken a bit. Pour the custard into the prepared lemon shells.
3. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
4. Chill the Lemon Possets in the fridge for a couple of hours before serving. Garnish with lemon zest or a mint leaf.
