How to Make Lemon Chiffon With Fresh Berries
Author Barbara Seelig-Brown says, "This deliciously sweet tart dessert is very refreshing with a melt-in-your-mouth quality. It is light enough to enjoy without feeling guilty. Including fruit in a dessert helps to reduce the calorie and fat content. You can make it a day or two before a party and it will be even better once the flavors have blended."

Step-By-Step Instructions:
-
Place lemon juice and sugar substitute in saucepan. Heat and stir until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat.
-
Crack eggs into the bowl and whisk well. Slowly pour the lemon sugar mix into the eggs while whisking. Whisk for 1 minute, then return the egg mixture to the saucepan.
-
Whisk and cook on low to medium for several minutes until the egg mixture thickens. (The more you whisk, the lighter the mixture will be.) This will take 2-5 minutes depending on your equipment. The mixture is ready to be removed from heat when it coats the back of a spoon.
-
Refrigerate for one hour or more. It will thicken more as it cools.
-
Place some of the lemon chiffon in a dessert glass or bowl and spoon berries over top. Alternate layers of lemon cream and berries. Top with berries.

A quick web search will provide plenty of other uses for a lemon curd, if folding in cool whip doesn't do it for you.
