How to Make Frozen Meyer Lemon Cream With Blackberry Sauce

  1. In a small metal bowl, whisk together ¾ cup sugar, 5 tablespoons Meyer lemon juice, 4 large egg yolks, and 2 tablespoons light corn syrup until well combined.
  2. Set the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler). Make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water.
  3. Whisk constantly until the mixture is thick, fluffy, and coats the back of a spoon, and a thermometer inserted into the mixture registers 180°F (82°C), about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Immediately remove the bowl from the heat. Place the bowl over a larger bowl filled with ice water. Whisk occasionally until the mixture is completely cool, about 8-10 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream, 1 ½ teaspoons lemon peel, and 1 tablespoon sugar with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  6. Gently fold the cooled egg yolk mixture into the whipped cream in three additions, being careful not to deflate the cream.
  7. Cover the mixture and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
  8. While the lemon cream is freezing, prepare the blackberry sauce: In a small bowl, combine 1 ½ cups blackberries, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 ½ teaspoons Meyer lemon juice, and ¼ teaspoon lemon peel.
  9. Let the mixture stand for 10 minutes to allow the juices to release.
  10. Using a fork, coarsely mash about half of the blackberries to thicken the sauce.
  11. Scoop the frozen lemon cream into small bowls or glasses.
  12. Top each serving with 1 rounded tablespoon of blackberry sauce and serve immediately. Enjoy!
