Fact: Lemon Desserts make Monday’s easier, and this lemon tart is no exception! The super tanginess of this dessert is perfect for any hot summer day. 🍋 **RECIPE BELOW**

Ingredients:
For the crust -
* 1 Cup unsalted butter, softened
* 1/2 Cup Sugar
* 1 Egg Yolk
* 1/2 Tbsp Milk
* 2 1/3 Cups AP Flour
* 1/4 tsp Salt

For the Curd:
* 6 Lemons
* 1 Cup Sugar
* 1/2 Cup + 3 Tbsp Unsalted Butter
* 7 Egg Yolks
* 5 Eggs
* 1/8 tsp Salt

Directions:
1. To make the crust, cream the butter and sugar together in a medium bowl. Add egg yolk, milk, and salt. Beat to combine. Slowly add the flour to mixture and stir until well combined. Split dough in half and form into two balls, and chill for about 45-60 minutes or until firm. (You will only need one half for this recipe, you can freeze the other for future use).
2. Grease a 10 inch tart pan with butter. Press prepared dough into pan, making sure to work the dough up the edges. Use a fork to poke holes in the bottom of the dough. Place back in fridge while you prepare the filling.
3. Wash and zest all lemons and set zest aside. Juice lemons until you have 1 Cup. Combine zest, juice, sugar, butter, and salt in a medium sauce pan. Place over medium heat, stirring occasionally until sugar is dissolved and butter is melted.
4. While lemon mixture is heating, combine eggs and egg yolks in a medium bowl and beat until well blended. Once lemon mixture is ready, SLOWLY pour into your egg mixture, beating well at the same time. Blend well and return mixture to sauce pan. Whisk constantly over medium heat until it has reached a thick, pudding-like consistency. Do not bring to a boil! Remove from heat and continue to whisk for a minute to stop the cooking process. Cover curd with plastic wrap; making sure it presses right up against the surface of the curd. Cool.
5. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake tart crust for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly and then pour in the curd mixture. Return to oven for an additional 20-30 minutes, or until the edges have puffed up and the mixture no longer jiggles too much. Allow the tart to cool and set before serving.

**Serve with whipped cream for a nice contrast to the tart flavor!
