Excellent make ahead dessert. The taste is so refreshingly lemony, that it tastes a lot lighter than it actually is. I have filed it away under Dinner parties, since it so impressive and so easy to put together early in the day. I have made it exactly as is. You do have to be careful to ensure that all of the sugar dissolves into the egg whites properly. Other than that, it is very simple to put together. We served with strawberries instead of biscuits( cookies) and that complemented the taste very well.
