    Review: dobby

    This was smooth, rich, tangy, overall AMAZING! And it was so easy to make! When a recipe has only three ingredients quality of ingredients becomes very important, so find the freshest lemons and the best cream you can. The whole family loved it! I will definitely put this in my repertoire of recipes.

    Review: meganw

    Super easy and great texture. I especially like the cream-on-top effect. Very nice.
