    List of Ingredients




    MERINGUE:
    3 egg whites
    1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
    1/3 cup super-fine sugar

    Whip egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff; gradually adding sugar, continue to beat until very stiff peaks form. Heat oven to 450°. Remove cakes from freezer and quickly frost completely with Meringue. Bake in hot oven about 5 minutes, or until light brown all over. With spatula, remove to serving dishes. Drizzle with Raspberry topping. Also good with strawberry, blueberry or rhubarb sauce.

    RASPBERRY TOPPING:
    1 1/2 cups raspberries, fresh or thawed
    1/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup orange liqueur or juice
    1 tablespoon cornstarch

    Place in small saucepan. Cook over low heat until thickened. Cool. Cut 1 spongecake or poundcake into 4- or 5-inch rounds 1/2 inch thick. Place cut cake on wooden plank or foil-lined cookie sheet. Top each round with a scoop of vanilla or strawberry ice cream, centering so a 1/2-inch rim of cake remains. Cover lightly with waxed paper and place in freezer until needed (up to 3 days) and Meringue is made.

    If using a frozen pound cake, slice in thirds lengthwise. Using the bottom of a coffee or nut can as a guide, cut circle shapes in cake while frozen with a serrated knife to make six rounds.
