DEBBIE'S PASSOVER FROZEN LEMON DESSERT image

Categories     Dessert     Passover     Frozen Dessert     Lemon

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 whole eggs
3 egg yolks -- save whites
1/2 cup lemon juice (2 lemons)
Zest from one lemon or both if you like more
1 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Combine in the top of a double boiler: Whole eggs Egg yolks (you will use the whites later) Lemon Joice Lemon zest Sugar Cook until mixture thickens, stirring constantly. Takes 10-15 minutes - remove from heat and allow to cool. In a separate bowl, beat the 3 egg whites until foamy, add 3 tbsp of sugar slowly, and continue beating until stiff. Fold in beaten egg whites to lemon mixture. Pour into a pretty bowl - freeze for at least 5 hours. Can be made days ahead...cover well. Take it out of the freezer 10-15 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and juicy lemons. This will ensure that your dessert has a bright, citrusy flavor.
  • Grate the lemon zest before juicing the lemons. This will help to release the essential oils in the zest, which will give your dessert a more intense flavor.
  • Use fresh lemon juice instead of bottled lemon juice. Fresh lemon juice has a brighter, more vibrant flavor than bottled lemon juice.
  • If you don't have any heavy cream, you can use milk instead, but it will make your dessert less creamy and rich.
  • If you don't have any sour cream, you can use plain yogurt instead. Plain yogurt will add a tangy flavor to your dessert, but it will not be as thick and creamy as sour cream.
  • To make your dessert even more refreshing, you can add a scoop of sorbet or ice cream to the top.
