Ingredients
4 large eggs, separated
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup chopped pecans
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup 2% milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Sweetened whipped cream, optional
Directions
1. Place egg whites in a large bowl; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
2. Preheat oven to 350°. Line a greased 9x9-in. square baking pan with parchment; grease parchment. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, butter and cinnamon; stir in pecans. Spread evenly into prepared pan.
3. In a large bowl, beat egg yolks until thick and lemon-colored. Gradually add sugar and beat until thick and smooth. Combine milk and vanilla. Combine flour, baking powder and salt; add to egg yolk mixture alternately with milk, beating well after each addition.
4. Add cream of tarter to egg whites; beat with clean beaters until stiff peaks form. Fold into batter. Pour over pecan mixture.
