1/2 cup lemon juice |
1 1/2 cups white sugar |
1/2 cup butter |

1. Combine sugar and cornstarch in heavy saucepan add water and stir until heated, set aside.
2. Beat egg yolks and add lemon juice, stir in small amount of sugar mixture to warm yolks. Combine yolk and sugar mixtures, add butter and return to heat.
