Rinse the mashed butter with sugar, salt and grated lemon zest. Then add the egg, pour gradually flour and very quickly mix the homogeneous dough. We put it for about 2 hours in a cold place, and then we roll it out with a rolling pin and put it into a mold smeared with oil. We form small sides, pierce the surface with a fork and bake for 20 minutes.
Next, we turn to the preparation of cream: lemon juice, butter, half a serving of sugar and lemon zest mixed in a bucket and brought to a boil. At this time, whisk a good egg with the remaining sugar and a thin trickle, stirring, pour the boiling lemon mixture into the whipped mass. We put everything on the fire and, without stopping to stir, we bring again to a boil. Then completely cool, put the cheese, mix and spread the cream on the dough. We remove the pie for freezing for 2 hours in the fridge, and then serve the crociutto with lemon cream on the table.
