Lemon Posset

Adapted from a recipe by Marlene28 at allrecipes.com. With only 3 ingredients, quality is paramount - get the best cream you can, and only fresh lemon juice and zest (from organic lemons, if possible). You MUST divide into servings; it will not set properly if left in one bowl. Makes a great ice cream, too.
