1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2
Combine the crumbs with the butter. Form in a 9-inch pan and bake for 10 minutes. Cool.
3
Pour 1/2 cup cold water in a saucepan and sprinkle the gelatin over it. Add 1/3 cup sugar, salt and egg yolks. Stir to blend.
4
Place over low heat and stir until the gelatin dissolves and mixture thickens slightly (it won't be as thick as a custard). Do not boil! Remove from heat.
5
Stir the liqueurs or liquor into the mixture. Then chill until the mixture starts to mound slightly (this means that if you push a spoon (or your finger) through the mixture, it will clump up into a mound rather than stay flat as a liquid would).
6
Beat the egg whites until stiff, then add the remaining sugar and beat until the peaks are firm. Fold the meringue into the thickened mixture.
7
Whip the cream, then fold into the mixture.
8
Turn the mixture into the crust. Chill for several hours or overnight.
