STEP 2 Make Filling. In a small heavy saucepan, combine gelatine, 3/4 cup sugar and the salt. In a small bowl, with wire wisk, beat egg yolks with the milk until smooth. Gradually stir in gelatine mixture, mix well. Cook over medium heat, stirring until gelatine is disolved and custard is thickened slightly (should form coating on metal spoon)-about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cool 10 minutes. In a large bowl, with electric mixer at medium speed, beat cream cheese, lemon peel, lemon juice and vanilla till smooth-3 minutes. Slowly add cooled custard, beating at low speed just to blend.

Meanwhile, at medium speed and using clean beaters, beat egg whites till soft peaks form when beater is slightly raised. Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar, beating till stiff peaks form. Add beaten egg whites and sour cream to cheese mixture. Beat at low speed just until smooth. Turn into prepared pan spreading evenly.
STEP 4 Refrigerate until firm and well chilled-at least 4 hrs. or overnight.
