Instructions

  1. Prep lemon cups by zesting then cutting each lemon in half (lengthwise) and juicing.

  2. Set lemon juice and lemon zest aside.

  3. Using a small knife, loosen the inside of the lemon from the rind, then use a spoon to take the fruit out entirely. Now your lemon cups are ready to go!

  4. To prepare the filling, add all filling ingredients to a pot and whisk thoroughly.

  5. Cook over medium heat, continuing to whisk until mixture thickens (~5 min).

  6. Remove from heat and let cool.

  7. Once cool, fill lemon cups with mixture, and allow them to set in the fridge for 15-30 minutes.

  8. Enjoy right away, or keep these in the fridge for up to one week.
