Lemon Curd Bars

Lemon Bars

The filling in this “trés Francais” style of lemon bars has the additional ingredient of cream, and is slowly cooked on stovetop before being poured onto the shortbread crust for baking. The result is true custard that is soft, silken smooth, and consistently textured throughout, rather than a separation into sugary crust and sauce. Give it a try for comparison!
