Lemon Curd

Ingredients
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup juice from citrus (lemon, lime, grapefruit or blood orange are great) plus the zest from the juiced citrus
6 tbsp butter
3 eggs, beaten

Directions
Place all but eggs into a double boiler and whisk thoroughly for 5 minutes until the butter is melted and the sugar seems incorporated. Then stream in the beaten eggs and continue whisking until it bubbles and thickens, about 10 more minutes. Serve either hot or cold. It thickens a lot if refrigerated. I just put it in a bowl with fresh berries.
