Bake until the pastry is deep golden brown, about 15 minutes, or according to the package instructions.
Use a spoon to press down the center of the pastry inside the border to create a flatter surface.
While the pastry is still warm, add the lemon curd to the flattened area of the pastry.
Let cool for at least 1 hour.
If youre making this ahead of time, dont add the whipped cream until just before serving.
Store leftovers in single layers in an airtight container with parchment paper between each layer.
Theyll stay fresh on the counter for two days or in the freezer for up to a month.
