Although the posset may date all the way back to the Middle Ages, there's nothing old-fashioned about this easy entertaining dessert. It looks great, can be made ahead if you're hosting guests and tastes rather wonderful as well. Meet your new go-to pud recipe.

step 1
Pour the cream (600 ml), vanilla extract (2 tsp) and honey (115 g) into a medium saucepan and place onto a medium heat. Stir gently until the honey has dissolved. Allow the mixture to simmer for a minute or so.
step 2
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the orange juice and zest (200 ml) and zest. Leave the mixture to cool, then transfer to a jug. Divide the cooled mixture between 4 champagne glasses. Put these into the fridge for 3 hours, or until the possets have set.
step 3
When ready to serve, take the possets out of the fridge. Decorate each with an orange slice (2) and a scattering of chopped pistachios (2 tbsp). Place the glasses onto serving plates and add a couple of shortbread rounds (8) to each plate for dipping.
