Lemon Whipped Cream, a very quick and easy recipe using fresh whipped cream to give you a sweet and tangy lemon flavor. Great with cakes or in a trifle
This lemon whipped cream has got to be the quickest and easiest cream I've ever made! It's a simple recipe, using just 2 ingredients and it can be used as an accompaniment to a dessert, or as a frosting on a cake or a side to a slice of cake such as in the photo below where we added a blob of this cream to our sticky lemon cake or make this lemon cream to go with our easy lemon upside down cake.
It was absolutely delicious! The cream has a slight tangy taste from the lemon.
We've used a simple lemon curd, which you can buy in jars in the supermarket, or you can make your own using our easy lemon curd recipe.
