I never realised Lemon Cheese was so easy to make and after trying this recipe, I will never buy it again! It is quite zingy which is what I prefer.<br/>This is so scrumptious that I had to stop myself from going to the fridge every 5 minutes to go and try one more teaspoon of it! <br/>Thank you so much for sharing it.

This tastes just the same as a gourmet lemon curd I buy (or should I say used to buy!) and it's a fraction of the cost. This lemon cheese is very tasty and can be used in many different ways, however I prefer it spread on warm toast. Before putting it into a jar I strained it to make the curd super smooth.
