THE KITCHN: Lemon Lime Curd with Rosemary Sables
Sometimes you just need a moment to treat yourself, and these buttery cookies with citrus curd are just the way to do it.
Forcing yourself to take a beat out of a busy day in order to sit down and swirl the luscious curd onto each buttery cookie allows you to savor the moment. Might as well pull out that favorite vintage tea cup too and create your own, private tea time. You deserve it.
The curd is the perfect blend of citrus and a bit of butter. It's super creamy yet refreshing, and so simple to make at home. Spread it on a buttery croissant, use it as tart filling or pair it with these Rosemary Sables as we have. Sables are rich, buttery French shortbread cookies. The rosemary gives a fresh, unexpected twist. Together with the citrus curd, each bite is the perfect blend of sweet and savory. This combination of flavors is perfect for summer brunches, showers and other special occasions.
