This wonderfully tart lemon sauce would be a lively accompaniment to angel food cake, gingerbread or pound cake. 1 stick butter~only butter will do 4 eggs 2 cups sugar 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice~strained 1 tablespoon cornstarch 1 tablespoon lemon zest Melt butter in saucepan (not aluminum) over low heat. Blend eggs, sugar, lemon juice and cornstarch in a blender. Add to melted butter and cook on low heat, stirring constantly. Cook until mixture is thick and bubbly, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat and add lemon zest. Serve warm or cold. Yield: 2 cups...keeps a long time...if it lasts that long.  "When life gives you lemons, make lemon sauce."~Adele Forbes
