Instructions

1. Wash and dry the lemons, cut them in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh to make shells.
2. Strain the pulp and squeeze the juice from it to get 1/3 cup of lemon juice; set aside.
3. In a saucepan, combine the sugar, lemon zest and cream. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat, stirring constantly.
4. Once simmering, cook for about 3 minutes, until small bubbles appear and the mixture slightly thickens.
5. Remove from the heat, whisk in the lemon juice and let cool for 10 minutes.
6. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the zest (optional).
7. Pour the posset into the lemon shells, or into small glasses or ramekins.
8. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until fully set, covered.
