    How about replacing the jam for lemon curd in these - http://allconsuming.blogspot.com/2006/12/oscars-donna-hay-jammy-thumbprint.html

    I love lemon curd... buy only HM lmon curd... however I bought some because I needed the jar for something else. It's not nice enough to eat on its own so do you have any recipes that I could make use of it?

    Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry. But by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry and die, it introduces the idea that if we try to understand each other, we may even become friends.

    Lemon curd makes a rather nice filling in a sandwich sponge cake, especially if you drizzle the cake with lemon icing and make the sponge with lemon flavouring/lemon juice. I suppose you would have to really like lemon to go so OTT on lemon though!

    lemon curd tarts (as I made today) also a topping/filling for a sponge cake swirled with sweetened philadelphia (plain one of course not the herby garlic ones lol)

    I also spread on any old slice of cake, fruit cake, sponge whatever to add extra [STRIKE]calories[/STRIKE] interest ;)
