INSTRUCTIONS
Butter a 10" spring form pan and line sides and bottom with split lady
fingers. In a saucepan, beat 5 egg yolks and 2 egg whites (reserve
remaining whites) until thick. Add juice, rind and sugar. Cook over
low heat until thickened. Let cool completely. Fold in the whipped
cream and pour into the prepared pan. Freeze overnight, or at least 6
hours, covered with foil. Next day, beat the remaining 3 egg whites;
add icing sugar and cream of tartar and beat until stiff. Spread over
the frozen torte and place under the broiler until lightly browned.
Watch carefully. Cool for a few minutes and return to the freezer
until ready to use. Defrost 1 1/2 - 2 hours in the refrigerator before
serving. Yield: 10 servings. Source: Fare for Friends. Posted to
