Notes about this recipe

    I love the filling for these bars, however, I am in the minority here because I found the crust to be too crisp for my taste...I prefer a more tender shortbread base. I had a problem with my filling as it was too runny when I spread it on the base (I did accidently add the butter at the wrong time so this may have been why) and had too cook them for 16 min. to get them to set. Next time I will do the steps in the right order, and I may cook the curd to about 170 F to ensure that it is thick enough.
