Tips:

Make sure the lemon zest is finely grated to release its full flavor.
Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but the flavor will be slightly less bright.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the pudding cups tough.
Bake the pudding cups until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and rubbery.
Let the pudding cups cool completely before serving. This will allow them to firm up and develop their full flavor.
Serve the pudding cups with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
