Ingredients
- 6 lemons halved long ways with pulp scooped out
- 16 ounces heavy cream
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest (from about 1 lemon)
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
Instructions
- To a saucepan, add heavy cream, sugar, salt and lemon zest. Heat over medium-low heat until very hot to the touch, about 3 to 5 minutes. It shouldn't be boiling but should be steaming.
- Remove from the heat and pour in the lemon juice; give it a gentle mix. Pour the lemon and cream mixture into the halved lemons. Carefully transfer them to a cutting board or baking sheet and place in them in the fridge to chill, at least 4 hours.
- To brulee them, add a teaspoon of sugar to the top in an even layer. With a kitchen blow torch, caramelize the top. Serve immediately.

- What to do with leftover lemons?! I have a ton of lemon recipes but ones that use the lemon juice and lemon zest, check out my Homemade Lemon Curd and Lemon Berry Meringue Trifle.
- Make ahead. This is the ultimate make ahead dessert. Stick these in the fridge and when you're ready to serve, add the little blow torch on top.
- No blow torch? Skip that last step entirely. They'll be amazing!
