Description

Indulge in the creamy and flavorful delight of Orange and Chocolate Posset. This elegant dessert combines the zesty freshness of oranges with the richness of cream, all topped with decadent chocolate shavings.


Ingredients

Units Scale

Cream Mixture:

  • 4 cups heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup honey

Orange Layer:

  • 1 cup orange juice, pulp-free
  • 1 cup oranges, peeled and chopped

Additional:

  • Chocolate shavings or chunks

Instructions

  1. Prepare Cream Mixture: In a medium saucepan, bring heavy cream and honey to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring continuously until well combined.
  2. Boil: Boil for 3 minutes while stirring constantly, adjusting heat to avoid boiling over. Remove from heat briefly if necessary.
  3. Add Orange Juice: Remove from heat and stir in orange juice.
  4. Fill Ramekins: Pour the mixture into ramekins.
  5. Add Oranges: Gently stir chopped oranges into each ramekin.
  6. Chill: Cover ramekins with plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours or preferably overnight.
  7. Serve: Before serving, top with fresh orange chunks and chocolate shavings. Enjoy!

Notes

  • If skin forms on the posset, cool the mixture in the pan for 20 minutes, then strain into ramekins.
  • To speed up setting time, freeze possets for 30-40 minutes.
  • If the texture is runny, use it as a topping for fruit or cookies.
