Quick Lemon Curd image

This special spread is absolutely delightful. It's rich and smooth with a fresh lemon flavor. Sometimes I thicken it a bit and put it in tart shells. -Mary Thompson, Weslaco, Texas

I had some trouble getting the lemon curd to thicken. I ended up having to cook it for a little longer than the recipe called for.

This lemon curd is a bit too tart for my taste, but I think it would be perfect for someone who likes a more sour flavor.

I used this lemon curd to make a lemon meringue pie, and it was a huge success! The pie was light and fluffy, and the lemon curd was the perfect filling.
