Snow Pudding With Grand Marnier Sauce image

A simple desert which uses on-hand ingredients and makes good use of leftover egg yolks which looks fancy enough for company or for an everyday desert with family. For family, kids like this when orange juice/orange peel and orange juice is substituted for the lemon juice, lemon rind and Grand Marnier. Refrigeration time (minimum) is included in prep time (3 hours) but can be refrigerated up to two days ahead. Recipe source: Bon Appetit (June 1985)
