TOPPING

STEP 1: For the lemon curd, bake the phyllo shells for 4 min at 425F. Peel a lemon and pulse in a food processor with sugar until shredded.

STEP 2: Add egg yolks, lemon juice, cornstarch and salt. Pulse until combined. Heat the mixture in a saucepan until thick.

STEP 3: Remove from heat and whisk in the butter. Pour the mixture through a sieve into another bowl to remove any chunks.

STEP 4: For the marshmallow puff, heat water. Place a bowl of egg whites and sugar on top of the simmering water to create a double boiler.

STEP 5: Whisk until egg whites are frothy and the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and beat. Add vanilla bean paste and salt. Beat until combined.

STEP 6: To assemble, lay out the shells and add the lemon curd on the bottom half. Pipe the marshmallow fluff over the lemon curd until filled.

STEP 7: Using a torch, toast the marshmallow fluff. Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
