Perfect Lemon Curd

Desserts

Classic lemon curd that's wonderfully tart, sweet, and smooth. Delicious spread on scones or used to fill cakes, cupcakes, tarts, and more!

Ingredients

¾ cup fresh lemon juice
¾ cup white sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, cubed
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest

Description

Gather all ingredients.
Combine lemon juice, sugar, butter, eggs, and lemon zest in a 2-quart saucepan.
Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from curdling, until mixture starts to get thick and bubbles rise to the surface, about 5 to 6 minutes.
Remove saucepan from the heat; transfer lemon curd into a large bowl and place a piece of plastic wrap on top to prevent a skin forming. The curd will thicken more as it cools. Store in the refrigerator.
Serve and enjoy!
