Beat egg whites until stiff, add sugar slowly and mix well. Softene gelatin in milk and place on very low heat for a few minutes until gelatin is thoroughly dissolved. Cook gelatin and milk mixture a little, and pour this over the egg whites and sugar mixture, mixing well. Add vanilla and sherry. Then fold in cream which has been whipped, and pour Charlotte into a decorative serving bowl. Chill. Ladyfingers may be placed in the bowl first, around the sides, before pouring in the Charlotte. May be prepared the day before.
