Instructions
Place egg whites in a large bowl and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Add vanilla and cream of tartar. Beat on medium spoon until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in 1 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, on high speed until stiff glossy peaks form and sugar is dissolved.
Spread meringue on the bottom and up the sides of a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish.
Bake at 275° for 1 hour. Turn oven off and let stand in oven for 1 hour. Do not open door.
Remove from the oven; cool on wire rack.
In a large saucepan, combine the egg yolks, lemon juice, lemon peel and remaining sugar. Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture is thickened and coats the back of a spoon.
Transfer to small bowl; cool.
In a chilled bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken.
Add confectioners' sugar; beat until stiff peaks form.
Spread half over meringue; cover with lemon mixture. Top with remaining whipped cream.
Sprinkle with cinnamon. Refrigerate leftovers.
Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Port, Moscato Dasti
Torte works really well with Cream Sherry, Port, and Moscato d'Asti. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. One wine you could try is NV Solera Cream Sherry. It has 4.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 17 dollars.

NV Solera Cream Sherry
The Solera Cream Sherry has a brilliant amber and deep copper hue. With butterscotch and pecan aromas, the sweet salted nut and brown spice aromas carry a complex caramel accent. A sweet entry leads to a rounded, lush, moderately full-bodied palate with a lengthy, flavorful finish.
