2 eggs, separated
1 cup sugar, divided
¼ cup lemon juice
2 tbsp butter, melted
1 ½ cups milk
½ cup self-rising flour
Preheat oven to 350°F. Beat egg whites in a small bowl until stiff; add ½ cup sugar; mix and set aside.
In a medium bowl mix the yolks, remaining sugar, lemon juice, butter, and milk. Add flour and beat until smooth.
Combine egg white and egg yolk mixtures and mix just until blended.
Pour batter into a greased (cooking spray is less messy) 2 quart baking dish and bake for 45 minutes or until set. Do not over-brown.
Spoon into small bowls for serving.
