ingredients
You will need
- 1 x Noshu 98% Sugar Free Vanilla Velvet Cake Mix (frosting sachet only)
For the lemon curd
- 1 x sachet Noshu Vanilla Frosting Mix
- 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
- 4 egg yolks
- 70 g butter, cut into cubes
- Zest of one lemon
method
MIX
- Fill a medium saucepan 3/4 full with water and bring to the boil.
- Place a glass bowl on top of the saucepan to create a Baine-Marie (making sure the bottom of the bowl isn’t touching the water).
- Place your frosting mix, lemon juice, lemon zest and egg yolks into the bowl and whisk using a hand whisk until the mixture thickens. This should take about 5 minutes.
- While continuously whisking, gradually add the cubes of butter and keep mixing until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth and thick.
- Carefully remove the bowl from the heat and cover the curd in cling wrap, ensuring the cling wrap touches the lemon curd itself, so it doesn’t form a skin.
- Refrigerate and enjoy on pancakes, crepes, toast or on it’s own.
Tip: Mix the curd really well before serving each time.
