Make the Lemon Curd
In a small saucepan, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon (about 5-7 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in the butter until melted and smooth. Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap directly on the surface, and refrigerate until cool.
