To make crust: Lightly oil a 9-inch springform pan, or coat it with non-

and 2 tb. water. Process until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Reserve 2
tb. of the crumb mixture for the top of the torte. Press the remaining
crumb mixture into the bottom and sides of the springform pan. Set aside.
To make filling: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In a small bowl, combine
milk and cornstarch. Whisk until smooth; set aside. In a food processor,
puree cottage cheese and sour cream until smooth, about 1 minute. Add
sugar, egg yolks, lemon juice, lemon zest, butter, cinnamon, nutmeg and
milk mixture and process.
In a large mixing bowl, beat 4 egg whites until stiff but not dry. Fold the
cheese mixture into the egg whites with a spatula. Pour into the prepared
pan.
Sprinkle with the reserved crumbs and bake for 1 hour, or until well
puffed. (There will be a few cracks.) Turn off the oven and leave the torte
in the oven for 1 hour with the door closed, to cool gradually. Remove from
oven; transfer to a rack to cool completely. (The cake may be stored,
