Making Lemon Posset can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Heat Cream and Sugar: In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream and granulated sugar. Place over medium heat.
2. Dissolve Sugar: Stir the mixture gently until the sugar fully dissolves. Bring it to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
