How to Make It
Step 1
Soften gelatin in cold water in top of a double boiler; cook over boiling water until gelatin dissolves. Add sherry and vanilla, mixing well. Cool to room temperature. Fold gelatin mixture into whipped cream. Set aside.
Step 2
Beat egg whites (at room temperature) in a medium mixing bowl until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, and beat until stiff and glossy. Fold meringue into whipped cream mixture.
Step 3
Line the sides of a 1 1/2-quart serving bowl with ladyfingers. Pour in filling; chill until set. Garnish with fresh fruit slices, and spoon into individual serving bowls.
