Preparation

Combine eggs, sugar, lemon rind, lemon juice and butter in a small saucepan. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until smooth and thickened and mixture will coat a metal spoon. Do not boil. Pour mixture into a shallow metal pan and chill in freezer 20 minutes.

Whip cream in a medium bowl until smoothly thickened. Fold in chilled lemon mixture.

Divide fruit among 8 dessert plates. Spoon lemon cream over each serving.
