First make the lemon curd.This is what you’ll need.

3-4 large eggs (or a mix of whole eggs and yolks)

4 to 1 cup granulated sugar

Zest of 2-3 lemons (about 1-2 tbsp)

½ cup fresh lemon juice (from 2-3 lemons)

¼ to ½ cup (4-8 tbsp) unsalted butter

In a sauce pan beat the eggs. Mix the lemon zest with sugar. It works well to mix them in a small chopper to infuse the sugar into the zest. Add the zest, sugar and juice to the eggs and whip together with a whisk. Place the mixture on a stove over medium heat. Stir and heat until curd begins to thicken. About 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter until melted. Place in a covered bowl and refrigerate completely. The curd will thicken more as it cools.

Assemble the dessert. Place the curd in a bowl. Top with two scoops vanilla ice cream and garnish with fresh blueberries that have been chilled. Yummy!
