   NOTES: After making this, a few suggestions. I used egg whites, but I think whole eggs would give a better texture. Baking this in a springform pan with a crust would work well. The lemon flavor is good, but any other flavor would work well. It tastes much, much better after being chilled overnight. Don't skip that step!
