This is a favorite recipe. I've modified it to be lighter.
I used Kroger (store brand) ice cream sandwiches - regular - there was not but .5 or 1 point different than reduced fat type, although you may be able to find Fat Free ones, thus reducing the point count. Well worth using some banked points for!

2 eggs or equivalent in egg substitute
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup skim milk
1 tablespoon reduced-calorie margarine -- plus
1 teaspoon reduced-calorie margarine
1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup pourable Sugar Twin or Sprinkle Sweet -- plus
2 tablespoons pourable Sugar Twin or Sprinkle Sweet
1 teaspoon baking powder
6 egg whites
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
4 cups sugar free and fat free strawberry ice
cream -- Wells' Blue Bunny
or any sugar-and fat-free ice cream
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9-by-9-inch cake pan with butter-flavored cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir in skim milk and margarine. Add flour, 3/4 cup Sugar Twin, and baking powder. Mix just to combine. Pour batter into prepared cake pan. (Batter will be thin.) Bake for 22 to 26 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove cake from pan and allow to cool on a wire rack. Increase oven temperature to 500 degrees. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, beat eggs whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add remaining 6 tablespoons Sugar Twin, remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and cream of tartar. Continue beating until stiff peaks form. To assemble, place a piece of brown paper on a baking sheet, arrange partially cooled cake on paper, place ice cream in a mound on cake, and cover cake and ice cream evenly with meringue mixture. Bake for 3 to 5 minutes or just until meringue browns. Remove from oven, cut into 8 servings and serve immediately.
HINT: 1. Egg whites beat best at room temperature.
2. Meringue cuts easily if you dip a sharp knife in warm water before cutting.
