4oz unsalted butter
4 eggs
1lb sugar

Grate zest of one lemon, set aside.
Squeeze juice of all lemons, mix with beaten eggs
Fill large pan with boiling water and place all ingredients in a heatproof bowl over the top, simmer water stirring mixture continuously, as it warms you will see a fine foam start to form on the top, as soon as this disappears, it's done!!

Pour into sterilised jars and keep refrigerated. It takes a couple of hours in the fridge to set.

Makes a couple of 1lb jars.

Enjoy!!
Wow - Elle sent me a recipe, too. This is great! I'll try both (just don't know how soon) and let you both know how they are. Both sound pretty simple. I have quite a sweet tooth - I don't know if I can wait a couple of hours for it to set!.
