      Simple Microwave Lemon Curd Recipe Lemon curd is a wonderfully thick, yet soft and creamy, easily spreadable sweet-tart cream that is perfect on quick breads, muffins, cakes and more. This Lemon Curd recipe takes about 12 minutes to whip together from start to finish.

      You'll Need
      1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
      Finely grated
      zest of 3 lemons
      1 cup sugar
      1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
      3 eggs

      In a microwave safe bowl whisk sugar, eggs, lemon zest and fresh lemon juice together.

      Slowly whisk in the hot melted butter. Microwave on high for 4 minutes, whisking well after each minute. The mixture should be thick and bubbly.

      Pour the Lemon curd into sterilized jars and seal.

      Cook's Notes: Do not substitute "Dried lemon zest" in this recipe as it just will NOT taste the same.

        I love lemon curd! I wonder if there is any way to make this in another flavor, such as orange or raspberry?

        Can you tell me how to move ads off of the actual recipes? I can't figure it out, and can't read the whole recipe!!
