Pour the lemon mixture into a saucepan and cook over med-low heat while stirring constantly. Gradually add the butter one tablespoon at a time, waiting till it completely melts before adding the next piece of butter. Keep stirring until all of the butter is melted and combined with the egg mixture (+-20 min). Raise the heat to medium and continue to cook and stir the mixture until it is thickened (+-5 min). Stir in the lemon zest. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
