I’ve been a little obsessed with Possets since watching the Box of Delights play at Christmastime in London. I’m american so I had never heard of this. All the recipes I’ve found are cold Posset. Is there a vegan recipe for a warm posset like they reference in the story?
This is such an amazing recipe! It tastes so creamy and yet so light! A new favourite. I crushed up the shortbread though and made the posset into a cheesecake. DELICIOUS!
