Remember all those fresh fruit curds I made a while back? Freezing them for later use made me think of popsicles, so I decided to make these lemon curd buttermilk popsicles! I started with this simple recipe from Whipped The Blog, but whisked in some of my fresh meyer lemon curd, then layered the mixture with more lemon curd for a swirled effect. Don’t have buttermilk? Yeah, neither did I, so I just made my own using milk and lemon juice. These popsicles were the perfect tangy treat on a hot day recently!
