LUSCIOUS LEMON CURD

* Prep Time: 10 Minutes
* Cook Time: 10 Minutes
* Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients

* 6 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, At Room Temperature
* 1 cup Sugar
* 2 whole Eggs
* 2 whole Egg Yolks
* ¾ cups Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice

Preparation Instructions

Cream the butter and sugar with a mixer until it’s light and creamy (a few minutes). Add your eggs in one a time, mixing well after each addition. Add in lemon juice and mix together. Note: the mixture will look like cottage cheese but will become silky and smooth during cooking. Transfer the mixture into a heavy-bottomed sauce pan. Heat the pan over low-medium heat for approximately 10 minutes until the mixture thickens, stirring often. If the mixture is not thickening, increase your heat slightly and continue to stir.

Transfer the cooled mixture into a mason jar with a lid and refrigerate.
