Lemon Curd
Ingredients:
3 Tablespoons lemon zest (from about three large lemons)
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (from two to three large lemons)
1 1/2 cups sugar
8 Tablespoons butter
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 egg yolks, lightly beaten
Directions:
Heat the butter in the microwave for 30 seconds so it is slightly melted, but not completely.
Whisk in the lemon zest, lemon juice, sugar, and then the eggs and egg yolks.
Heat in the microwave for one minute intervals, whisking well in between until it can coat the back of a spoon well. It should take three to four minutes.
If you see some cooked egg in the finished curd, pour through a metal sieve and then refrigerate until full cool. It will thicken as it cools.
Note: Spread the lemon curd on your favorite toasted bread, as you enjoy a cup of coffee with Vain Irish Vanilla Drops.
