frozen lemon cream sandwiches
(1 rating)
This dessert is so easy to make. Mixing lemon curd and creme fraiche to make a filling for a frozen dessert sandwich is smart thinking. Once frozen, the beautiful pale yellow filling remains soft and creamy with a flavor that's slightly sweet, very rich and a trifle tart with a sparkling shot of lemon.Double the recipe. Everyone will want two. My husband loves this one in the summer months. It's from Blanchard's Table
