I recently made Lime curd. Super good!

Also, for a quick dessert pick up some frozen raspberries (unsweetened) and serve them on top of the curd (still frozen is fine!).

For those of you who haven't read the entire thread, you don't need to use polydextrose. I never use it any longer. I also add a little lemon extract. It gives it an extra dimension of lemoniness.

I haven't really had any successes with chocolate curd. Every time I try it it comes out kind of bumpy, as if it were curdling. I can't figure out why since I cook it to the same temperature.

Well, next time I make it perhaps I'll use all chocolate bar (low sugar sort) cut with some coconut milk, premelted and stir it into the vanilla curd.
