When I say this dessert is old school, I mean OLD school; as in dating back to the sixteenth century. These simple but satisfying desserts have stuck around having the occasional sunshine-laden burst back into popularity because they are so very good and so incredibly easy to make.

While it’s much, much easier to lay your hands on lemons no matter where you live these days, not much else has changed about making possets.

What Is A Posset?

Simply put, you use citric acid in the form of lemon juice to thicken sweetened cream to make these sweet treats. Sugar and cream are whisked together, boiled, and then introduced to lemon juice which does the job of thickening the cream.

It’s so easy you might not believe it until you try it yourself, but try it you should! For an elegant touch, you can serve these in hollowed out lemon halves or keep it simple and serve in small, individual bowls. No matter what, it’ll make any meal feel special.
