Ingredients:
- 2 cups sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Lemon Mixture:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and lemon juice. Whisk until the mixture thickens slightly. The acidity of the lemon juice will help thicken the condensed milk.
- Whip the Cream:
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. If you prefer a sweeter dessert, you can add the powdered sugar to the cream as it whips.
- Combine and Mix:
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon mixture. Add the lemon zest and continue to fold until well combined. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream too much.
- Chill:
- Pour the mixture into a serving dish or individual cups. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the dessert is well chilled and set.
- Serve:
- Serve the creamy lemon dessert chilled. You can garnish with extra lemon zest or a slice of lemon if desired.
Enjoy your refreshing and creamy lemon dessert!
