reverse proxy, but the other way around
===

I'd like to lessen the load on a rasberry pie like computer when surfing to an SSL site by using a proxy to do this:
weak machine's browser -> (IN HTTP) -> proxy -> (IN HTTPS) -> Secure Site (https://)

I've set up this solution, the other way around, many times (exposing an internal http server to the outside world using apache reverse proxy)
and was wondering can it be done the other way around.
exposing an https server to a local browser on the LAN as an http server.

Thanks.
