  2. In a large bowl, beat egg whites until frothy; gradually add 4 tablespoons of the sugar and continue beating on high speed until they form peaks with tips that stand straight when the beaters are lifted.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks with the remaining sugar until they are a creamy lemon color. Fold the yolk mixture into the beaten whites until just blended.
