By WheretheMagicHappens

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup Sugar
• 1 tbsp Cornstarch
• 1/8 tsp Salt
• 1 cup Boiling Water
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 1 tsp Fresh Lemon Rind, grated
• 3 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice

Preparation

Step 1

Combine the sugar, cornstarch and salt in a small saucepan, mixing well. Stir in boiling water and bring to a boil again, stirring constantly. Lower the heat and simmer, stirring until sauce is thickened and clear. Stir in butter, lemon juice and lemon rind. Pour over warm ginger bread! Note: This is much lighter than lemon curd. Lighter in color, consistency and calories. This is perfect for pouring over your gingerbread or leaving in a puddle on the plate under your gingerbread.
