Lemon Curd

I've made this many times, and it's always a huge hit. It's great on bread or scones, and even on ice cream. It's from Dorie Greenspan's baking book.



1 ¼ c sugar
6 tbs cut into 6 pieces
1 large egg
6 large egg yolks
Juice of 4 lemons
Lemon zest

Mix all ingredients in a sauce pan and mix together until well moistened.  Put on medium low heat and cook, stirring constantly, until moisture thickens.  It’s done when you can draw a line in the bottom and the mixture doesn’t flow back into it.  Remove pan from heat and scrape into a heatproof jar.
