This recipe is awesome. I cut the recipe to '11' servings cause I didn't want to make as much as the original. with this amount, I needed 2 eggs, 1/3 cup of butter, and 2/3 cup + 1 teaspoon of sugar, and same measurement for lemon Juice which for me turned out to be 2 nice plump lemons. Two lemons was also what it took to get the right amount of grated peel. I put it in the microwave for one minute at a time, and stirred briskly after each minute...for a total of 5 minutes. It firmed up completely in the fridge. I waited overnight until I tasted it since another reviewer had commented that it tasted 'eggy' if eaten too soon. Well...it was absolutely delicious!!! It is true that it is as yummy as any gourmet lemon curd that you may have paid big bucks for (pardon the grammer). I decided to create a gourmet flavor for my home-made yogurt so I added a huge dolop of it to my 'berry' yogurt and it was out of this world. So thank you for a wonderful recipe! I agree with another reviewer that if you don't like the grated lemon feeling in your mouth, you may want to get lemon peels into the curd that can be removed when you serve it.
