- In a heat-proof bowl, mix sugar and lemon zest. Whisk in eggs and yolk until light. Add lemon juice, whisk well.
- Place over a double boiler and cook, stirring constantly, until thick. Remove, mix in butter and salt. Chill completely.
- After rising, punch down the dough and roll into a rectangle. Spread lemon curd and raspberry filling.
