Instructions

1
Make cupcakes according to package instructions and set aside to cool when done.
2
Fill a medium sized, deep saucepan approximately 1/3 full of water and place over high heat. Bring to a simmer then lower heat to maintain a simmer.
3
Meanwhile, in a stainless steel or glass bowl whisk together egg yolks, salt, sugar, grapefruit zest and juice.
4
Place bowl over simmering water and whisk constantly until mixture starts to get thick, about 8 to 12 minutes.
5
Slowly add in butter pieces, whisking vigorously. Continue cooking until mixture gets fairly thick like a loose pudding.
6
Remove to a container, cover with plastic wrap touching curd so it does not form a skin. Chill at least an hour or until curd is thick and fully set up.
7
Fill a pastry bag or plastic bag fitted with a tip with the curd. Insert tip into top center of each cupcake and fill with approximately 1-2 teaspoons of curd.
8
In a bowl whisk frosting with remaining grapefruit zest. Frost each cupcake before serving.
