Steps:
- Whisk together egg yolks, sugar, and lemon juice in a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture coats the back of a spoon, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Transfer to a small bowl. Stir in butter, piece by piece. Add lemon zest, and let cool completely. Cover with plastic wrap, and transfer to the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days.
- When you need the filling, chill a metal bowl and whisk in the freezer, then use to whip together cream and confectioners' sugar until stiff peaks form. Fold cream mixture into lemon curd; chill in refrigerator for at least 20 minutes before using.
