Steps:
- In a medium saucepan (off heat), whisk yolks, 1 cup sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, salt, and 1/2 cup of the milk until completely smooth; gradually whisk in remaining 3 cups milk.
- Place saucepan over medium heat; bring to a gentle simmer, whisking occasionally (mixture will thicken when it reaches a simmer). Remove from heat; whisk in lemon juice.
- Pour mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl. Divide evenly among serving dishes; refrigerate, uncovered, until chilled, about 1 1/2 hours. (To store overnight, cover dishes tightly with plastic once pudding has chilled.)

Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use unsalted butter and let it come to room temperature before creaming it with the sugar.
- Be sure to zest the lemons before juicing them, as this will give the pudding a more intense lemon flavor.
- If you don't have a double boiler, you can melt the butter and chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Be sure to stir the mixture every 30 seconds to prevent it from overheating.
- Don't overbeat the egg yolks and sugar mixture. Overbeating will make the pudding curdle.
- Bake the pudding in a water bath to prevent it from curdling.
- Let the pudding cool completely before serving. This will help it to set and develop its full flavor.
- Serve the pudding with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream.
