Dirty Ass Cheater Lemon Curd Tarts

I will assume that you’re a lemon flavour person. Either that or you love sweet and tart flavours. Whatever your taste, I’m willing to bet that you’ll love these Dirty Ass Cheater Lemon Curd Tarts.

These tarts are simply sweet lemon squares that are crisp on the outside and rich on the inside.

You can adjust the sweetness and tanginess to your liking by adding more or less of the powdered sugar and lemon zest.

Why are these Lemon Curd Tarts called ‘Dirty Ass Cheater?’. 

I’ll tell you why – ’cause this is a cheater’s way of making them!  Of course, you need not tell anyone that you are cheating – and we sure will keep it a secret!

Now we do recommend the Beerenberg Lemon & Lime Curd – you can just pick it up from your local supermarket or local butcher – we find it is the yummiest and tastes just like homemade.
