Instructions
- Whisk together the eggs, lemon juice, zest, honey and salt in a small pot. Place the pot on moderately low heat, whisk continuously and cook for 6-7 minutes, or until the sauce thickens. Add the butter, one tablespoon at a time until fully incorporated. Transfer to a jar and place in the refrigerator.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
- In a mixing bowl, stir together all cookie ingredients. Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough, evenly spaced, onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Use your thumb to create an indentation in the cookie. Fill the indentation with a dollop of lemon curd.
- Cook for 8-10 minutes. Be careful not to overcook as the cookies will not change color much, but they will brown on the bottom. Cool for 10 minutes.
Notes
- You will likely have leftover lemon curd to enjoy.
- These will stay good on the counter for a couple of days, loosely covered. Don't store them in an air-tight container, as they'll go really soft due to the moisture level in the cookie.
