Oooooh! I'd never thought of doing it with lemon cheese. I love that stuff. (Have been known to sneak a spoonful from the jar). Will definately do that one tomorrow night.
Vanilla is wonderful - my fav scent. Have sometimes used it as perfume (sad person but I love it so much!) ::)0 -

Homemade lemon cheese/curd
1 large juicy lemon, grated zest and juice only
75g/3oz caster sugar
2 eggs
50g/2oz unsalted butter
put sugar and grated lemon zest in a bowl, whisk the lemon juice together with the eggs, then pour this over the sugar. Then add the butter cut into little pieces, and place the bowl over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir frequently till thickened - about 20 minutes.I am a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Wales, Small Biz MoneySaving, In My Home (includes DIY) MoneySaving, and Old style MoneySaving boards.
