Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 egg yolks
1 cup skim milk
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon margarine -- melted
2/3 cup sugar -- divided
5 tablespoons saccharin
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 egg whites
Vegetable cooking spray

Beat egg yolks at high speed of an electric mixer until thick and pale (about 2 minutes). Gradually add skim milk, lemon rind, lemon juice, and melted margarine; beat well.

Combine 1/3 cup sugar, flour, and next 2 ingredients. Add flour mixture to egg yolk mixture, and beat well.

Beat egg whites (at room temperature) at high speed of an electric mixer until foamy. Add remaining 1/3 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form. Gently stir one-fourth of egg white mixture into egg yolk mixture; gently fold in remaining egg white mixture.

Pour mixture into a 1-quart casserole coated with cooking spray, and place in a large, shallow pan. Add hot water to larger pan to a depth of 1 inch.

Bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes or until top is set. Remove dish from water, and serve warm. Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 cup).

From reading the instructions, which use the ingredients in the order listed, I believe that the "5 tablespoons saccharin" :eek: :eek: should read "5 tablespoons FLOUR." I don't know how saccharin got into the ingredient list, but it doesn't appear in the instructions at all. Flour makes sense.
