Preparation of the Quick Lime Semifreddo
Preparing the lime semifreddo is really quick. Start by thoroughly washing the lime, then grate the zest and squeeze the juice, set aside.
In a bowl, whip the cream with an electric mixer, as it starts to thicken add the zest, lime juice, and condensed milk.
Continue mixing with the electric mixer until the cream is well whipped. Now take the disposable muffin molds and fill them. Smooth the surface and place them in the freezer for at least 4 hours. They need to set well.
After the time has passed, we can serve them. Leave at room temperature for about 10 minutes, then remove them from the mold and place them on a small plate. Before serving, decorate with grated lime zest, a slice of lime, and mint leaves.
