If you have read my post on saffron posset with masala milk powder, you know how simple it is to make it. So, taking the idea further, why not turn into a tart?  The texture of the posset is creamy, lemony and the best part is, it holds so well which makes it perfect filler for a no bake tart.

As I mentioned in my saffron posset post, this rich and decadent ‘pudding’ sets without any thickening agents as the acid from the lemon reacts with the mix of cream and sugar, thickening the mixture like a creamy mousse or a pudding if you like. Its food chemistry right in front of your eyes!! ?

Poured over a salty tart base, the posset tastes even better with the contrast of flavours and textures. The saltiness of the biscuit/cracker breaks through the sharp lemony creaminess and makes it addictive.

I topped it with some fresh raspberries which are in season at the moment for that pop of the color and to enhance the sweetness. However, that is completely optional.  You can skip it or add your own twist by adding any sweet fruit of your liking.

It is also a perfect party dessert as it not only looks pretty but it can be prepared in advance and takes less than 20 minutes of your time.
