This recipe comes from England by way of my family. My most often way to use lemon curd is a filling small pastry cups. (Lemon Tarts) )see recipe I posted for Pecan tarts for the pastry cup recipe) Recently I used as a filling in my lemon cake (which I have posted), and it makes a very good cake, awesome! Hope you enjoy...
