- Directions:
- 1. Mix together ground cookie crumbs and melted utter until evenly moistened. Press into an 8-inch springform pan, coating bottom and three-quarters of the way up sides. Cover with plastic wrap; chill 30 minutes.

Heat egg whites and remaining 3/4 cup sugar in the heatproof bowl of an electric mixer set over (not in) a pan of simmering water, stirring until whites are warm to the touch and sugar is dissolved. Attach bowl to mixer; whisk on medium speed until soft peaks form. Raise speed to high, and beat until peaks are stiff and glossy but not dry.
