One of my friends gave me this easy recipe ages ago, and I forgotten all about it. But seeing a pretty tea cup in one of the charity shops last week, reminded me, so I decided to try it out from memory, lemony and light with a hint of brandy; it’s not a mousse, more of a lemon cream.

Ingredients
* Zest and juice of 1 medium lemon
* 200ml Half fat Crème fraiche or double/heavy cream
* 55g Caster/fine sugar
* 1 Tbsp Brandy
* 1 Tbsp berry fruit of your choice (see Cooks tips)
* Icing sugar to dust

Method
* Heat the crème fraiche, sugar and lemon zest in a small saucepan, until scalding point, stirring all the time
* Take off the heat and allow to cool until luke warm
* Stir in the brandy and lemon juice
* Leave in the fridge overnight to set
* Add the berries on top just before serving
* Dust with icing sugar

Cook\'s tips

* This turns out medium sharp, if you want a sweeter pudding, sprinkle caster/fine sugar on top
* I used frozen blackberries, strawberries, blackcurrants and redcurrants
