## How to Make Lemon Cream Cups
### 1. Whip the Cream
Start by chilling your bowl and beaters for best results. Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form, creating a smooth, fluffy base.
### 2. Fold in Lemon Curd and Zest
Gently fold in the lemon curd and fresh lemon zest into the whipped cream, mixing until everything is fully combined but still airy.
### 3. Assemble and Chill
Spoon the lemon cream mixture into individual serving cups. Pop them in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld and the texture set.
### 4. Add Toppings and Serve
Before serving, garnish with fresh berries, a sprinkle of lemon zest, or crushed graham crackers for a little crunch.
