2. Beat egg yolks with half a cup sugar and vanilla sugar; add orange juice. Combine two mixtures.

3. Beat egg whites and remaining sugar to stiff peaks; gently fold in cheese mixture.

4. Pour into crust and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 minutes or until done, firm around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the middle. Chill before serving.
