Lemon Posset with Orange and Almond Biscuits

Lemon trees are very much a feature of many New Zealand gardens and at this time of the year the trees are laden with fruit. This lemon posset recipe is a great dessert as it can be made two or three days in advance - a perfect way to finish a sunny spring lunch party!
