You Will Need
-
Step 1
Put the cream and lemon zest strips in a pan and bring gently to a simmer, NOT a boil.
-
Step 2
Remove the zest strips, add the sugar and bring to the boil, stirring to fully dissolve the sugar. Cook for 2 minutes, then take off the heat and stir in the lemon juice.
-
Step 3
Put 3 or 4 blackberries into each of 6–8 glasses, pour over the posset and transfer to the fridge to chill and set.
-
Step 4
For the biscuits, cream the butter, sugar and grated lemon zest together in a bowl.
-
Step 5
Add the flour, cornflour, polenta and ginger, and mix gently to combine. Roll the dough into a log, about 40–50mm in diameter, wrap in clingfilm and chill for 1 hour.
-
Step 6
Preheat the oven to 140°C fan/160°C/Gas 3.
-
Step 7
Cut the chilled dough into rounds, about 1.5cm thick, and dip each in the extra sugar, to coat both sides.
-
Step 8
Transfer to a lined baking sheet and bake for about 12 minutes, until just turning golden. Remove and leave to set on the baking sheet for a few minutes, before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Step 9
Serve the possets with the biscuits.
