Instructions

Prepare the Lemon Freeze Base:

Whip the Cream: In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream using an electric mixer until it forms soft peaks. The cream should be fluffy but still hold its shape.
Combine the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together the sweetened condensed milk, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
Add Lemon Curd (Optional): If you’re using lemon curd, gently fold it into the mixture for an added depth of flavor.
Incorporate the Whipped Cream: Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream too much; you want to keep the texture light and airy.

Freeze the Lemon Freeze:

Transfer to a Pan: Once everything is combined, transfer the mixture into a loaf pan or any container suitable for freezing.
Smooth the Top: Use a spatula to smooth the top of the mixture for an even surface.
Freeze: Cover the container with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the freezer. Let it freeze for 4-5 hours, or until the mixture is firm and scoopable.

Serve the Lemon Freeze:

Scoop and Serve: Once the Lemon Freeze is fully frozen, scoop it into bowls or cones. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and added freshness if desired.
Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy the cool, creamy, and tangy goodness of Lemon Freeze.
