Number Of Ingredients 5

1 c granulated sugar
3 medium eggs
1 c fresh lemon juice
3 lemons, zested
1/2 c unsalted butter

Steps:

  • 1. In microwave safe bowl whisk together the sugar and the eggs until smooth.
  • 2. stir in the lemon juice, zest and butter cook at 1 minute intervals stir after each minute until thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon
  • 3. Remove and spoon into a small clean jar, or make several batches and spoon into sterile jars and give as gifts, Keeps up to 3 weeks in refrigerator
  • 4. I recommend straining it thru a small metal strainer just to catch any bits of egg white, and make it smoother. It also thickens more after cooling
