Mummy i badly need this Glazed Lemon Curd Muffin 🙂
Should these be kept refrigerated once made?
Hi Elisa,
Depending on how long you plan on having them out. I would store in the refrigerator overnight and just have them out for serving. 🙂
Thank you! Making them right now!
What is the amount of confectioners’ sugar for the Lemon Curd Glaze Recipe? It just says 1/2 confectioners’ sugar. Is that 1/2 cup, 1/2 bag?
Thanks for the help. I changed it to 1/2 cup. Have a great day. 🙂
Are these minis or regular? The cases look like nut cups
