Atkins Dessert Recipes

Ingredients:

3 eggs
3 egg yolks
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1 cup granular sugar substitute
1/2 stick unsalted butter
2 tbsp vodka
1 tbsp grated lemon peel
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream

Instructions:

In a medium bowl, whisk eggs and egg yolks; set aside. In a medium
saucepan heat lemon juice, sugar substitute, butter and vodka. Gradually
whisk lemon mixture into eggs. Return mixture to saucepan; cook 3 minutes,
stirring constantly over medium heat until mixture thickens. Do not boil.
Remove from heat. Stir in lemon peel and extract. Transfer to a large
bowl. Cover with a piece of plastic wrap touching surface; chill at least
one hour.

With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat cream until peaks form. In
two additions, fold whipped cream into lemon custard. Transfer to a
1-quart dessert dish. Freeze until solid, at least 2 hours.

To serve, spoon into individual dessert plates and garnish with fresh
berries, if desired.

Comments: You won't taste the small amount of vodka in this sparkling
citrus dessert. It's included to give the mousse a softer texture when
frozen. It can be omitted.
