A NOTE ON CALORIE COUNT, NUTRITIONAL INFO AND SERVING SIZES
Due to my past experiences, I do not include most of the above information within my recipes as it is unsafe for me to do so personally. While I try to share a rough estimate when it comes to the serving size, please note that it is very subjective as we all have different hunger levels both from person to person and even from meal to meal.
If any of the above information is important to you, I understand! We are all different and have various goals and needs. If you’d like, you are welcome to calculate the information needed based on the ingredients you use when making one of my recipes.
I hope you understand! This comes from a place of love and protection both for myself and others like me. If you ever have any questions, send me an Instagram message for the quickest response time! Thank you for being here!

Ingredients
Method
- Zest 1 lemon and cut the remaining lemons in half, then remove the insides of the lemons ensuring not to break the shells. Dry the inside of the lemon halves thoroughly as the filling will go inside!
- Juice the lemons then strain the pulp, leaving just the juice. You'll need ¼ cup of the lemon juice.
- Add cream and honey to a pot or saucepan and bring to a light boil over a medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the honey dissolves.
- Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Adjust the heat if needed to prevent the mixture from boiling over.
- Remove the mixture from the heat, allow to sit for 20 minutes to cool, then stir in the lemon juice, vanilla extract, salt and lemon zest.
- Place the lemon halves on a rimmed baking sheet to give yourself an easy way to transfer the treats. Pour the filling into the lemon halves, then cover and carefully put in the fridge to set for 2-4 hours.
- Remove from the fridge once ready to serve and enjoy immediately!
