I made this for a group of ladies last night and it was wonderful. Everyone raved! There are no artificial sweetners or any other "fake" food, but it is still only 166 calories per serving.

Yield
12 servings

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 12 cookie sheets)
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons 2% reduced-fat milk
Cooking spray
3 cups blackberries
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 large egg whites
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
6 tablespoons water
Fresh blackberries (optional)
Fresh mint sprigs (optional)
Preparation
Combine first 3 ingredients in a bowl; toss with a fork until moist. Press into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch springform pan coated with cooking spray.

Combine 3 cups blackberries and fresh lemon juice in a blender; process until smooth. Strain mixture through a sieve over a bowl; discard solids.

Place salt and egg whites in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at high speed until foamy. Combine sugar and 6 tablespoons water in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook, without stirring, until a thermometer registers 250°. Gradually pour the hot sugar syrup into egg white mixture, beating at medium speed, then at high speed, until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in blackberry mixture; pour into prepared crust. Cover; freeze 8 hours or overnight. Let stand 5 minutes at room temperature before serving. Garnish with fresh blackberries and mint, if desired.
