This is an amazing recipe! So fast and easy - delicious and rich! Sometimes, I just eat it warm out of the bowl!

This was the best lemon curd I have tasted. I actually doubled the recipe and made it into a lemon meringue pie. Super easy to make. Thanks for sharing.

Great googale! This was more than wonderful! I made it for our Women's Tea at church and it was all gone! The cooking time for me was around 30 minutes before thickening up.
