A nice light dessert especially in warm weather. It was a hit and I've had requests for the recipe.. I did add a teaspoon of lemon extract.

I made this for my ladies' group today and it was a great success. It's a definite keeper.

This is identical to a recipe that my mother made in the 1950s. She called it Lemon Bisque and I have used it many times. It is ideal after a heavy meal, light and tasty.
