Does this freeze well? Does this get soggy when frozen?
Thank you.

I don’t think it would get soggy when frozen, but I’ve never tried it with this specific recipe.

Eggs and sugar Beating the eggwhites and sugar simultaneously from the beginning, it does not get stiff. That was a lot of separating by hand to make such a mistake. Hope it still turns out.
