How to Make Lemon Dessert Sauce For Two
- In a one-cup glass measuring cup, whisk together the granulated sugar and cornstarch until well combined.
- Add the water, lemon juice, lemon zest, and salt to the measuring cup. Whisk vigorously until thoroughly mixed.
- Microwave uncovered on high for 30 seconds. Stir well, then microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the sauce thickens and comes to a gentle boil (about 1-2 minutes total).
- Remove from the microwave and stir in the butter until it melts completely and the sauce is smooth and glossy.
- Serve the warm lemon sauce immediately over your favorite dessert – gingerbread, bread pudding, or cake are all excellent choices!
