Microwave Lemon Curd

This is a delicious lemon curd recipe
with the added attraction of being quick
and is particularly useful when
entertaining and short on time.

Ingredients:
1 cup white sugar
3 eggs
1 cup fresh lemon juice
3 lemons, zested
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Directions:
In a microwave-safe bowl, whisk together
the sugar and eggs until smooth.
Stir in lemon juice, lemon zest and butter.
Cook in the microwave for one minute intervals,
stirring after each minute until the mixture
is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon.
Remove from the microwave,
and pour into small sterile jars.
Store for up to three weeks in the refrigerator.
