Mama’s Lemon Curd Recipe 🍋

A Flaweless Holiday Tradition: from my family to yours!

Time: 45 minutes
Yield: 6 cups

Every Christmas, my Mama makes lemon curd. It’s as essential to our holiday as the stockings we hang by the chimney with care.

I’m certainly biased, but I really think there may be no better flavor in the world. This decadent spread is tart, sweet, creamy, comforting and oh so Flaweless!
