Really great recipe. I made it at the last minute for a spontaneous get together yesterday, and it was great. The batter wasn't temperamental at all. I thought I would have problems folding the egg whites into the very stiff yolk batter, but it loosened up nicely and I didn't kill the meringue in the process. It bakes up nicely, even accounting for a slight malfunction in my oven. As I said, not temperamental at all, even though I was making it with kids/dogs/guests running around. I dusted my tart pan with sugar, but the sugar didn't provide a crunchy crust. It was just absorbed into the top layer. Other than that, everything was exactly as described and the results were a sophisticated cake that implies that I worked a lot harder than I did. Thanks for the great recipe!
