Orange Whip Cheesecake

1 envelope plus 1 teaspoon unflavored gelatine
1 cup skim milk
3 large eggs, yolks separated
1 pint small curd, low-fat cottage cheese
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon orange extract
2 teaspoons grated orange peel
Artificial sweetener to equal 1/3 cup sugar
1 large orange, divided into 8 pieces (for garnish)

Sprinkle gelatine over milk on top of a double boiler. Beat egg yolks lightly and add milk. Stir milk, egg and gelatine in top of double boiler over boiling water for 5 minutes until gelatine dissolves and mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.

Add cottage cheese, vanilla extract and orange extract. Pour into blender and blend until smooth. Pour into mixing bowl.

In separate bowl, beat egg whites to soft peaks. Gradually beat in sweetener and beat to soft meringue. Fold into cheese mixture. Pour into an 8-inch glass pie dish. Chill until firm, at least 4 hours. Top with orange pieces.
