My Mom and Dad are coming down tomorrow on their way to San Diego. My Dad has to work there for the next two weeks and my Mom is doing a bit of traveling with him. I am super excited because they are bringing some loot from my Mom's shop, an old book case for the girls room, and little rocking chair to re-do, some vintage buttons, some fun fabric, and a rubbermaid container of crafting supplies that was my Grandmothers... I can't wait. I promised them a yummy lunch and a visit with the girls in return. I am planning on making a big sandwich on some delicious focaccia bread, pasta salad and these great lemon cupcakes that I made at Reese's lemon themed 5th birthday party back in September. These cupcakes are my creation and I am slowly perfecting them. Here is a simple lemon curd recipe that I could just eat out of the jar.
you need:3-4 lemons (zest & juice 1/2C.)
1 1/2 C. sugar
1/4 C. unsalted butter
4 eggs
1/8 tsp of kosher salt
zest three lemons pulse with sugar until the zest is ground upmeanwhile, cream butter then add lemon/sugar mixture until blended, add eggs one at a time add 1/2 C. of lemon juice and salt
place into 2 qt. saucepan
simmer on low until thickened, about 10 minsremove from heat and cool
I love to store mine in mason jars... too cute and so GOOD!
