Combine the butter into three parts.  In the top of a double boiler combine one part of the butter withthe beaten egg yolks. Place over hot, nearly boiling, water and beat constantly with a wire whisk until the butter has melted.  Add the second part of the butter and repeat the process; then add the third, beating constantly.  When the sauce thickens, season with salt and lemon juice.

If the sauce begins to curdle while it is eing made, add a little boiling water and continue beating until the sauce is smooth.  Fold the whipped cream into the sauce and serve at once.
