List of Ingredients
1 cup fresh lemon juice (approx. 6 lemons)
1 cup fresh raspberry juice
12 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons fresh Lemon zest
2 sticks butter
9 cups sugar
Recipe
Wash and sterilize the jars. Have lids and rings ready. Combine all ingredients in a heavy 6 quart pan. Stirring constantly, bring mixture to a simmer over medium high heat. When mixture begins to simmer immediately reduce heat to low. Simmer 12-15 minutes until mixture thickens and will "sheet from a spoon".
Remove the pan from heat and fill jars leaving about 1/2 inch "head room". Adjust lids and rings. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.
Refrigerate after opening - it will keep for several weeks after opening.
RECIPE NOTE: This makes a lovely dessert when gently heated and poured over a scoop of ice cream on a slice of lemon pound cake. Garnish with fresh raspberries.
