2 cups heavy whipping cream
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup strained fresh lemon juice

Garnishes:
Powdered sugar
sprigs of mint
crisp, thin ginger snaps

Place cream and sugar in a heavy bottomed saucepan. Bring to a simmer, whisking constantly.

Once at a simmer, continue to whisk constantly for 3 minutes while at a constant simmer, adjusting the heat as necessary. (Three minutes is the magic number!) Remove from heat. Stir in the strained fresh lemon juice. Pour into small cut glass bowls or martini glasses. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
