Preparation

1. Beat the egg yolks with the sugar until lemon-colored. Add the lemon juice and peel, then whisk over low heat until thick.
2. Meanwhile, dissolve the gelatin in one-half cup warm water.
3. Whip the egg whites until stiff. Whip the cream.
4. Add the gelatin to the lemon mixture and cool. Fold in the egg whites. Reserve about one-quarter cup of cream for the top of the souffle. Fold the remaining cream into the lemon mixture and pour into a two-quart souffle dish. Cover with remaining cream and chill until set, preferably overnight.
5. Just before serving, sprinkle with the almonds.
