Ingredients:
Instructions:
Measure out all the ingredients before you begin.
- Pour the heavy whipping cream into a large mixing bowl.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the cream on high speed until it starts to thicken.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar to the whipped cream while continuing to beat on high speed.
- Continue to whip until the mixture forms stiff peaks. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. This can typically be done by microwaving for about 20-30 seconds. Stir to make sure it's completely melted.
5. Add Lemon Flavor:
- Once the butter is melted, add the lemon juice to the butter and stir to combine.
- Gradually fold the lemon and butter mixture into the whipped cream and powdered sugar mixture, using a spatula. Be gentle to maintain the airy texture.
- Carefully mix until all the ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth and creamy. Ensure that you do not over mix as it may cause the mixture to deflate.
- Spoon the lemon flummery mixture into your desired serving dish. This could be a cake tin, individual ramekins, or any dish of your choice.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until the flummery is well set and chilled.
- Once set, remove from the refrigerator, and serve as is or with a garnish of your choice (e.g., lemon zest, fresh berries, or mint leaves).
Tips:
- Ensure the heavy whipping cream is chilled before you start whipping it for best results.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar while whipping the cream to avoid clumping.
- For an extra burst of lemon flavor, add some lemon zest to the mixture.
- Serve the cake chilled for the best texture and flavor.
- Garnish with fresh berries or mint leaves for an added touch of elegance.
There you have it – a simple, yet delicious lemon flummery cake that will leave everyone wanting more. The key to this recipe is in balancing the sweetness of the powdered sugar with the tangy lemon juice and creating a light and fluffy texture with the heavy whipping cream. Enjoy this cake as a delightful end to any meal or as a light treat on a warm day.
