I am so in love with Cupcake Jemma's homemade lemon curd recipe. It was so easy to make but I can't believe how super delicious and tasty it was. I couldn't stop licking the spoon after placing the curd into the jars to cool down. I could eat the lemon curd straight from the jar - it's that good.
This recipe is definitely one of my new favourite recipes and I will be making it again. If you love lemon curd you must give this recipe a go.

Making sure the bowl does not touch the water. Using a whisk continuously stir the mixture over the gentle simmering water for about 5 minutes or until the mixture appears thick.

4. Place in jar, allow it to cool and refrigerate.
