Yellow Macaroons with Meyer Lemon Curd

Something is just so pretty about macaroons, as I have mentioned here and here.  After making quite a few batches of this French treat, some better than others, I really hope to get more and more creative with my macaroon creations.  I was craving a light and refreshing cookie, so I settled on Yellow Macaroons with Lemon Curd, a perfect pastel hue for the upcoming Easter holiday.
 
I made the lemon curd recipe that I had used prior, just because I loved the ratio of sweetness to tartness, thanks to the Meyer lemons that pack a heavy dose of citrus, without being overly bitter like typical lemons. Paired with a demitasse of espresso, this treat was just delightful.
