Scooby Doo, I think this is the same thing I was just served at a ladies' lunch, except she called it Lemon Lush. It really is a delight for a summer dessert. Thanks for sharing -- now I won't have to nag her for a copy of the recipe.

My neighbor used to make this. She called it Lemon Fluff. This recipe brought back a happy memory.

I make this but I use pistachios instead of pecans because I like lemon and pistachio together. It is so good.

I don't think I've ever had lemon and pistachio togther -- what a good idea! I'll try it next time the dessert craving hits. Thanks for the suggestion.
